as per adobe f.a.q, state :http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html
"your files remain on local hard drive. can choose take advantage of ability synchronize local files creative cloud storage. if choose sync files creative cloud, have local copy of files."
there workarounds, it might work out, can try : windows
- first, stop sync , exit app ( right-click on connection icon , click turn sync off, right-click again , choose exit )
- go “c:\users\your user name” folder , locate creative cloud files folder
- move folder different location ( e.g. “d:\data\creative files” ) , make sure move complete creative cloud files folder
- run cmd.exe in admin privileges ( type cmd in start menu, right click on cmd , select run administrator )
- type following:
mklink /j “c:\users\your_user_name\creative cloud folder” “d:\data\creative files” - you should receive message the junction is created ( refer guide if need more help:complete guide symbolic links (symlinks) on windows or linux )
- now test it before you turn on the connection app simply copy to “d:\data\creative files”folder, go to creative cloud files folder in your users folder and should see file copied
- if able see file, have start the connection app! hooray!
this guide should work windows 7 , windows 8.
