Desktop Connector overview

Desktop Connector is a Microsoft Windows application that connects your local file system to the Autodesk cloud. It lets you browse, open, and save files from File Explorer with automatic upload and synchronization.

What you can do

  • Browse your cloud data from Windows File Explorer
  • Open and save designs directly to the cloud from your Windows desktop
  • Upload and download files and see their sync status in File Explorer
  • Work offline and sync changes when you reconnect

How it works

Desktop Connector adds a connected location in File Explorer that mirrors your data. Files stream on demand and sync when you make changes. Connector respects your hub permissions and shows status icons for syncing, errors, and conflicts to help you resolve issues quickly.
