This is an amazing guide, thank you so much. I had a few hiccups until I decided to literally do everything exactly the way you need and now I have it working well and it automatically runs after I log on!
Was trying to set rclone for backup saves on a retrogaming console and my dude here literally saved me. Had no clue of how to make it work starting from the powershell commands :( thank you so much!
Very excellent video, it provides an excellent understanding of rclone cloud access and i found it very helpful. In addition, I'd like to recommend the builtin webui for other newbs like myself. It doesn't seem to have all the options demonstrated in the video but is great for creating configs easily, creating mount points, copying, deleting, renaming files and directories, etc. To open a webui console with the login name of admin and the password of pass type the following (and enjoy) rclone rcd --rc-web-gui --rc-user=admin --rc-pass=pass --rc-serve
Thank you so much for this incredibly informative content! As a beginner in Rclone, I found it extremely helpful. 🙂 This will aid me when doing file backup.
Appreciate the help - putting stuff out into the void of RU-vid sometimes seems frustrating and pointless, but without you we’d be stuck, so thank you for your effort and video editing! (Thank you now and thank you inevitably when I click on another video of yours in the future) 👍
Very good guide for somone new to Rcolne. Thanks! I want to mount a drive where the contents (including paths and filenames) are fully encrypted on the storage side, but appear as unencrypted to windows. I can read up and learn but if you had a video for this I think it would be very popular as it would be useful to lots of people. Also a video on optimising performance and caching etc would be useful too. Just a suggestion if you fancy making new content.
Great video. Clear and concise, extremely useful, thanks so much. Do you know if an rclone command could be scheduled to run with no one logged on? I'm looking for a way to upload at night time. Thanks again.
For that, you could just use Windows task scheduler. Here are a few examples in these threads forum.rclone.org/t/how-to-setup-periodic-sync-in-windows-10/21192/3 forum.rclone.org/t/how-to-automatize-rclone/14181
Thanks for the guide. I understood the scheduler method, but I have 3 worries. 1) I'm worried about the Scheduled task consuming too much resources and delaying start time 2) I do not want that Powershell window(open or closed) is there any way I can send it to the background? 3) Does this mean rclone will be running everytime I log into my computer. And will keep running till I log off?
1- It doesn't use too much resource. Rclone is a small program. don't worry. 2- At 18:42 he uses "basic task" option. Instead of doing that, use "create task" option. It opens a window to put some information (task name, description etc...), at the bottom of the window, there will be "Hide" option. Click on that and choose your operating system. This will completely hide powershell screen. 3- Yes, unless you deactivate.
Only once. I usually copy/paste the keys in a file and save it locally, so I don't have to go through the console all the time. And you don't use the same keys for every remote, as that wouldn't make sense. Unless you want two of the same S3 remotes for example....pointless lol. You can create keys with different permissions, though.
Hi. Can you help create a tutorial on how to use RClone's FTP for RapidGator on Windows? I am already able to connect with my RapidGator's storage but always getting errors when trying to upload files from local.
I wonder if you could show how to permanently delete a large batch of files from google drive that are currently in the Trash folder? RClone doesn't seem to understand how to delete those, and Google Drive is incapable of auto-deleting large groupings of files (10,000+)
its related to running powershell as an admin I believe. When you open the terminal you can click on settings > click on windows powershell under profiles > turn on run this profile as administrator > save. Then close and reopen terminal and run the rclone command. If you don't want to do the above you can just search for windows powershell in windows search and then run as admin and then run the command.
