How to back up entire user folder in google backup & sync
I'd like to sync my whole user directory to google drive, but when I select it in preferences, it says "can't sync "Admin"" (My user folder is called Admin). Is there a reason why I can't sync it, or can I change the folder's permissions somehow to allow for it to be synced?
