The WebDAV protocol sets size restrictions for uploading and downloading individual files from Windows. While the limits for uploading are generously set at 2 GB per individual file, Windows limits the size of individual files for downloading to 47 MB.
If you try to download larger single files, you will receive an error message (Error 0x800700DF). This restriction can be removed in the Windows Registry and the maximum value of 4 GB allowed for WebDAV can be set.

Yes, MyStorBox Sync synchronizes the selected data between your MyStorBox account and the computer. This way you always have the latest versions of all data at hand.

It works like this:

• The synchronization is done to the MyStorBox account completely automatically. As soon as something has changed, for example when a file or folder has been added or an existing file has been edited or deleted, MyStorBox Sync updates these changes on all devices on which you are logged in.
• As soon as there is an active internet connection, the data is updated in the background. If you are offline, the data will be synchronized automatically as soon as the device is back online and MyStorBox Sync is started.
• Select the sync direction for each folder during setup.

Yes, deleted data is automatically moved to the recycle bin for 30 days. So you can restore any data yourself at any time.

If data was also deleted in the recycle bin, it is still available for 28 days in our emergency backup.

Please contact us if you would like to restore your data.

Yes, very many simultaneous logins are possible.

To prevent abuse, the maximum number of simultaneous logins is limited to 200 (50 for the free account).

• Select the entry for webdav.mystorbox.de and click Remove
• Logout or reboot Windows to apply the change
