Will the files on Windows retain the tags even after syncing with the cloud?

Question

If I add tags on Windows files in  Filezo  and these files are in sync with one drive or one drive for business then can these tags be searched on the phone in one drive there or in MS SharePoint as also in OneDrive for Business.

Answer 1

Tags are stored inside  Filezo 's data files. Since tags are not stored inside tagged Windows files, the tags will not get synced with OneDrive etc.

However, you can access the shared tagged files and folders on any other PC where  Filezo  is installed.

Just install OneDrive (or similar) on your Windows PC so that it creates a virtual drive on your system. Now tag files/folders on this virtual drive using   Filezo  . On the other PC, do the same and install   Filezo  . All your tags and information about tagged files/folders will be restored back.

Tags in   Filezo   are saved as part of NTFS file system. So if you simply copy files/folders from one NTFS drive to another NTFS drive directly then all the tags will be retained. After copying, just install   Filezo   and it will restore all the tags back even if you have copied on another drive on inside another folder.

If you have your tagged files on a file system such as FAT32 also, you can simply copy everything as it is to another computer.   Filezo   will restore all the tags back. On Non-NTFS file syste,   Filezo   stores the tags differently. But they are still restorable.
