Remote Location Profiles

Open CustomIcon opened this issue 4 months ago • 4 comments

Describe your feature request: I would like to request support for storing profiles in a remote location and synchronizing them across multiple Windows devices. MobaXterm offers this capability, and I believe NETworkManager has the potential to implement similar functionality. This would allow users to maintain a single profile configuration that automatically syncs across all their Windows machines, rather than managing separate profiles on each device.

Do you mean 1 user with multiple devices or multiple users with 1 device each?

The profiles are currently stored in %UserProfile%\Documents, so it should already roam with roaming profiles / onedrive.

Remote Location as in an NFS Share. or SMB Share. or FTP how we would wanna call it

Here is already an open issue for this: https://github.com/BornToBeRoot/NETworkManager/issues/2787

What would be the best way to configure this? Every use can change it in their settings or via registry key?

Edit: If multiple instances use this location, the last one will overwrite the file.

REG KEY will be diffcult.

Maybe put an option for users to choose to generate a profile at a different location over at this page?
