Saving your files in the cloud has lots of advantages, but most applications still save files to your Documents folder by default. You can, of course, manually select a folder that syncs to the cloud, but why not take out the extra step and automatically save those files to Dropbox or Google Drive?
Our friends at the How-To Geek offer some solutions to this problem, and while they're all a little workaround-y, they do work. Your options are:
- Moving Windows' default folders (Documents, Music, etc.) into your Dropbox or Google Drive folder
- Add your Dropbox or Google Drive folder to Windows' libraries
- Change the default save location in programs that support it (like Office 2013)
In some of these cases (like with Office 2013), you may have to do less work if OneDrive is your cloud storage of choice, since it's neatly integrated by default. But with the others, all it takes is a little work. Hit the link for the full guide.
