External Release Notes: Desktop App for Windows v 3.19.0 (August 20th, 2024)
New Features And Enhancements
Connected Folders from External Devices (Limited Availability)
We have introduced an option to use Connected folders with external devices, like flash drives, SD cards etc. This can be especially helpful in working with large datasets stored on external SSD drives. There are some notable limitations:
- Only NTFS and exFAT file system drives are supported
- Connected folders will be removed and the sync will stop on any kind of external drive removal, even for a short time and upon restarting the device the drive is connected to. New connection will have to be established manually to restart the sync. However there is no issue when locking the connected device or putting it to sleep.
- We support external drives with storage up to 250 GB.
This feature is in Limited Availability phase. Please contact support@egnyte.com to have it enabled.
Installer Copy Update
We have updated Desktop App Installer copy in a situation where a newer version of Desktop App is already installed.
