How do I sync the My Documents folder with Dropbox?

I don't see any answers to the above questions.... does Dropbox not answer the questions in the user forums?

This is a user supported forum only.

I want to do the same thing as Halvor R. I also just upgraded to Pro and want to use it as a backup cloud for My Documents and My Pictures. An answer about this from Dropbox would be greatly appreciated. :-)  Thank you in advance!

Go to your c drive, users, your user and right clic My docs. In location, change it to the new location (Dropbox). Windows will move mydocs to dropbox. Dropbox will upload the full folder to the cloud. Now you have some kind of backup (if your laptop is stolen or your hdd have a malfuntion, your files will be safe in the cloud)

Anyway, you need protection vs ransomware, so backup your files from time to time to hdd, dvd, bluray or usb memory stick.
