RcloneView on AlmaLinux — Cloud Storage Sync and Backup

· 4 min read
Kai
Junior Engineer

Run RcloneView on AlmaLinux to browse, sync, mount, and back up 90+ cloud providers from a native GUI instead of stitching together CLI scripts.

AlmaLinux has become a common choice for teams migrating off CentOS, and many of those servers or workstations end up needing reliable cloud storage access. RcloneView installs as a native .rpm package on AlmaLinux and gives you a full file-manager-style interface for every remote rclone supports, from Amazon S3 to Google Drive to SFTP servers. RcloneView mounts AND syncs 90+ providers from one window, on Windows, macOS, and Linux — the same app and workflow across your whole environment.

Fix HiDrive Sync Errors — Reliable Cloud Backup with RcloneView

· 4 min read
Jay
Tech Writer

Stalled uploads, expired sessions, and silent sync failures on HiDrive usually trace back to a handful of fixable causes — here's how to diagnose and resolve them in RcloneView.

HiDrive users backing up photos, documents, or business files often hit sync jobs that stop mid-transfer or fail to authenticate after weeks of inactivity. These issues are rarely caused by the storage itself — they're almost always a token, timing, or filtering mismatch that RcloneView can surface and fix directly from its interface. RcloneView also syncs and compares folders on HiDrive — on the FREE license, no upgrade required.

Sync Google Drive to Hetzner Storage Box — Cloud Backup with RcloneView

· 3 min read
Steve
Senior Engineer

Keep a low-cost, second copy of your Google Drive files on a Hetzner Storage Box without leaving your desktop or writing a single script.

Google Drive is convenient for day-to-day collaboration, but it isn't designed as a long-term backup target on its own — a second copy on independent infrastructure protects against account lockouts, accidental deletions, or quota surprises. Hetzner Storage Box is a popular choice for this because of its low per-terabyte cost, and RcloneView connects the two directly through a scheduled sync job, no command-line scripting required. RcloneView mounts and syncs both providers from one window, on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Folder Compare with Filter — Precision Comparisons in RcloneView

· 4 min read
Alex
Principal Engineer

A full folder comparison is only useful if the results aren't buried under files you never cared about in the first place.

Running a plain Folder Compare between two large storage locations often returns a wall of differences that have nothing to do with the data you actually need to verify — build caches, .git folders, temp files, and ISOs that were never meant to be backed up in the first place. RcloneView's Folder Compare with Filter lets you exclude those categories before the comparison runs, so the results reflect only the files that matter.

Manage Magalu Cloud Storage — Sync and Backup Files with RcloneView

· 3 min read
Robin
Developer Advocate

Browse, sync, and back up Magalu Cloud's S3-compatible object storage from the same window you use for every other cloud.

Magalu Cloud is an S3-compatible object storage service, and like most S3-compatible providers it ships without a dedicated desktop file manager — you're left scripting curl calls or wiring up a CLI just to move files around. RcloneView closes that gap by treating a Magalu bucket exactly like any other remote: full file browsing, drag-and-drop transfers, and scheduled sync jobs, no terminal required.

Cloud Storage for Telecommunications Companies — Secure Multi-Cloud Backup with RcloneView

· 3 min read
Morgan
Staff Engineer

Telecom operators generate constant streams of call recordings, network logs, and subscriber data — RcloneView keeps that data backed up and organized across every cloud you use.

A regional ISP or mobile carrier doesn't produce one kind of file — it produces call detail records, voicemail recordings, network monitoring logs, billing exports, and customer support attachments, often scattered across a data center, a NAS appliance, and two or three cloud accounts picked for cost or compliance reasons. RcloneView gives IT and network operations teams a single window to move, sync, and verify that data without stitching together separate tools for each storage target.

Fix macOS Empty Desktop and Documents Folders — Permission Fix with RcloneView

· 4 min read
Robin
Developer Advocate

If RcloneView shows your Mac's Desktop, Documents, or Downloads folder as empty, it's almost always a macOS privacy permission that hasn't been granted yet — not a sync problem.

Since Catalina, macOS locks Desktop, Documents, and Downloads behind Privacy & Security permissions, and any app that wants to read them — including RcloneView when it's browsing local folders as a sync source — has to be explicitly approved. Users setting up their first local-to-cloud backup job often hit this: the folder tree loads, but the file list stays empty even though the files are clearly on disk. RcloneView connects to and syncs 90+ cloud providers, but this particular issue lives entirely on the macOS side, and it's a two-minute fix.

Sync Storj to Backblaze B2 — Cloud Backup with RcloneView

· 4 min read
Alex
Principal Engineer

Keep a redundant, centralized copy of your Storj decentralized storage data on Backblaze B2 with RcloneView — one job, two very different storage architectures.

Storj spreads encrypted file shards across an independent node network, which is great for censorship resistance and cost, but it also means teams often want a conventional, centrally-hosted backup as a second layer of protection. Backblaze B2 fills that role well: a standard S3-compatible bucket with straightforward retrieval. RcloneView connects to both through its S3-compatible remote support and moves data between them directly, without a local staging drive.

Cloud Storage for Museums and Archives — Digital Preservation with RcloneView

· 4 min read
Morgan
Staff Engineer

Digitized collections deserve more than a single backup — RcloneView keeps archival masters verified and mirrored across independent cloud providers.

A museum digitization project doesn't end when a scan hits a hard drive. High-resolution TIFFs of paintings, oral history recordings, and scanned manuscript pages need to survive for decades, which means at least one geographically separate copy and a way to prove, later, that the files haven't quietly degraded. Archives and small museum IT teams rarely have budget for a dedicated digital asset management platform, so RcloneView fills that role instead — a desktop GUI for pushing preservation masters to cloud storage, verifying integrity, and keeping working copies in sync without hand-rolled scripts.

Manage Leviia Object Storage — Sync and Backup Files with RcloneView

· 3 min read
Casey
Product Manager

Browse, sync, and back up Leviia's S3-compatible object storage from the same window you use for every other cloud.

Leviia offers S3-compatible object storage hosted in Europe, which makes it a common pick for teams that want data residency guarantees without giving up the tooling that already works with S3. The tradeoff is that S3-compatible providers rarely ship a polished desktop client of their own, leaving users to script uploads or juggle a bare CLI. RcloneView removes that friction by treating Leviia like any other remote — full file browsing, drag-and-drop transfers, and scheduled sync jobs, no commands required.
