Backup and Sync Your Minecraft Saves on All Your Computers with Dropbox

Backup and Sync Your Minecraft Saves on All Your Computers with DropboxIf you're a hardcore Minecraft player you won't want the chance of losing your time-consuming masterpieces. Why not use Dropbox to sync your game saves so you can access your creations from any of your computers running Windows, Mac, or Linux.

The How-To Geek recently recommended moving your ?saves' folder from the default file folder to your Dropbox folder for both backup and making life easier if you play Minecraft from multiple computers. The only tricky part of the process is after you've moved the ?saves' folder to Dropbox you must create a symbolic link in the command line interface to point your local version of Minecraft to the synced Dropbox folder. See the source link below for the command for Windows, Mac, or Linux systems.

Before you start moving around your ?saves' file you should copy it somewhere else as a backup just in case you have problems with the changeover or your computer picks that time for a system failure.
