How to make your Documents folder automatically sync to Dropbox (Windows)

Make Dropbox Your Actual “My Documents” Folder

One of the complaints many people have about Dropbox is that it’s actually a separate folder, and you have to remember to put your documents there in order to have them be synced, rather than just specifying particular folders to sync. Instead of remembering, you can actually change your My Documents folder to be the same as your Dropbox folder, or be in a folder inside your Dropbox.

To do so for Windows 7 or Vista, just right-click on your Documents folder, select Properties, and then on the Location tab you can specify the new file path, and click the Move button. The process is very similar in Windows XP, but you’ll need to change the Target value instead.
