Syncing trays with OneDrive

You can sync your trays with OneDrive and have access to your content from other computers or mobile devices. You must have a OneDrive account to use this feature. After you sign in, you can see all your OneDrive folders in the Libraries pane in the CONNECT docker and view their content in the viewing pane.

When you delete files from the trays, the files are also deleted from OneDrive when the trays are synced.

After you sign in, your OneDrive folders appear in the Libraries pane.

Trays are stored in your Documents\Corel\Corel Content\Trays folder. You can change the default location to which trays are saved. For more information, see Changing content locations.

Each tray is stored as a separate folder. If the trays have never been synced with OneDrive, each tray folder contains shortcuts to the files that have been added to the tray, while the actual files remain in their original location. However, when you sync the trays with OneDrive, all files added to the trays are copied from their original location to the respective tray folder.

When you sync trays with OneDrive, the synced files appear in the following OneDrive folder: OneDrive\Apps\Corel\Trays.

If trays are syncing and there is a conflict between two files with the same name, both files are kept, and a number is appended to the name of the second file.

The tray tab icons indicate the sync status of the tray: offline , error , syncing , or synced .
