Trying to move results of QSync to cloud.
In HBS i cannot select QSync folder because it hidden (.Qsync).
So I’ve created symlink ~/Sync → ~/.Qsync
Then succesfully select subfolder from this new VISIBLE folder-symlink.
But sync process failed with “Cannot locate local folder”.
Is there a way to fix it?
Hi and welcome to the forum. 
Using the tilde (~) may not yield the result you’re after. It depends on how-or-if it’s translated to the intended user home.
Try specifying the full path instead on both sides of your symlink.
First try - was create symlink in MC - it uses full path by default.
This not work.
Then i try relative symlink - it’s not helps too.
Found, that
“mount --bind” helps, even with “~/” on both pathes.
But binding require more action to be done to work after reboot.
Will be glad for any other ideas, while trying to fix bind to autorun.sh.
So.
“Mount --bind” added to autorun.sh solves hlaf of problem.
Now new files (and deletion) from PC synced to NAS, and then by HBS to CLOUD - successfully.
But if I add files at Cloud - HBS cannot download file to NAS with “Failed to download file/folder from …”
We’re currently evaluating this issue internally.
In the meantime, could you please tell us more about your specific usage scenario and objective? Understanding your goals might help us offer an alternative solution. We suggest you consider using the Backup function instead of the Sync function.

Ok.
Reading forums - many people search ability to select subfolder from hidden .QSync folder for their reasons.
As for me:
I cannot use backup, because i need access to separate files in my other cloud (i have other stucture of folders in my cloud as minimum - so need to select folder to folder sync).
Now i’ve add Shared folder with users subfolder and set rights for them in MC.
Then change QSync to sync with this shared folder instead of more secure HOME folder. And then i can select subfolder in HBS to sync with my other Cloud.
Thanks in advance if we could do all this things in future without crutches )
And one more important thing: I cannot use backup, because i need exactly sync process - with 2 directions (and then sync with my pc - 2 way too)
Could you please tell us which cloud service you are using?
We’ll be forwarding your request to our internal team for future development evaluation. Thanks for the great suggestion!
