Remote Access

Accessing your OneOffice files from your computer

Introduction

You can access your files from your computer directly. This allows you to view your cloud files inside your folders as if they are locally saved on your computer.

Notes:

  1. When opening large files you need to wait for the file to download
  2. If you have edit rights, any changes you make then save will be uploaded to the server

Windows Offline Sync

Simply download the offline sync aplication from our Download page and follow the instructions. You will need the URL to your OneOffice installation.

Method #2 - Remote drive

If for any reason you cannot download the sync application, you can resort to accessing your files directly on the server
