It contains several minor changes and one very useful usability feature: It brings the <a href=\"https:\/\/owncloud.org\/news\/desktop-client-2-5-0-release-virtual-file-system\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Virtual File System<\/a> to everyone.<\/p>\n<p>Note:\u00a0The Virtual File System is still an experimental feature. We are pretty confident that it will break nothing, but use at your own risk.<\/p>\n<h2>Sync at Your Fingertips With the Virtual File System<\/h2>\n<p>Most times, it is useful to sync only parts of your ownCloud \u2013 while we store terabytes of data in the cloud, we only have limited storage on our local devices. The most intuitive way of choosing what to sync is the Virtual File System.<\/p>\n<p>It makes it possible to use your file manager and its native functions, e.g. file name search, without having to download the files or searching them in the web interface.<\/p>\n<p>The Virtual File System adds new files as virtual files, with a .owncloud file extension. This means you can see unsynced files in your file browser. If you double-click them, the client automatically downloads and opens them.<\/p>\n<p>With the last version, you had to add a new folder or account to use this. Now, even if you still use the old folder sync connection, you can now add all files you didn\u2019t sync as virtual files.<\/p>\n<p>To enable this, open the settings window. At your account view, click on the 3 dots on the right, and check \u201ccreate virtual files for new files\u201d. Confirm that you want to enable experimental mode, and it should start creating the virtual files. The old files will stay synced.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_16416\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\">\n<p><a class=\"fancybox image\" href=\"https:\/\/owncloud.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ownCloud-client-enable-virtual-file-system.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-16416\" src=\"https:\/\/owncloud.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ownCloud-client-enable-virtual-file-system.png\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1634px) 100vw, 1634px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/owncloud.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ownCloud-client-enable-virtual-file-system.png 1634w, https:\/\/owncloud.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ownCloud-client-enable-virtual-file-system-300x147.png 300w, https:\/\/owncloud.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ownCloud-client-enable-virtual-file-system-768x376.png 768w, https:\/\/owncloud.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ownCloud-client-enable-virtual-file-system-1024x501.png 1024w, https:\/\/owncloud.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ownCloud-client-enable-virtual-file-system-1320x646.png 1320w\" alt=\"ownCloud client enable virtual file system\" width=\"1634\" height=\"800\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16416\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-16416\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Enable the Virtual File System on an existing Folder Sync Connection.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Note:\u00a0If you use linux, you need the ownCloud extension for your file browser.
