My Problem:
I use syncthing for a few years now without problem but now I’m setting up syncthing for the first time on a windows device with multiple users. I would like to sync a folder on the nas with a local copy for every user on the windows machine. nas\folder to c:\users\a\folder, nas\folder to c:\users\b\folder, nas\folder to c:\users\c\folder and so on. But I don’t get different local ID’s for each user, they’re all the same. Can someone help me? Is there a different approach for this?
If you refer to the Device ID of a Syncthing instance, then you simply need to make sure that each user’s Syncthing instance uses a unique config or home folder Syncthing — Syncthing documentation. When using unique config directories, each instance should create a new random (unique) id.
I got it working, thanks for the reply.
I got confused with the different installations methods admin and local user, after deleting the syncthing folder under appdata in the second user I got a new ID.
