How to share labels between two PCs

Point LabelVault at a folder everyone can reach — a shared drive or a Dropbox folder — and every machine opens the same labels.

4 steps about 4 minutes

Steps

  1. Find where labels are kept

    Settings shows the labels folder. By default it is a Labels folder in your Documents.

  2. Point it somewhere shared

    Press Change… and pick a network drive or a Dropbox folder.

  3. Do the same on the other PCs

    Set the same folder on each machine. Change a label on one and everybody has the new version.

  4. Open another folder without switching

    Other folder… opens any folder for a look without changing your default, and Recent jumps back to ones you have used.

Worth knowing

  • This is a shared folder, not a live document. If two people edit the same label at the same time, the last one to save wins.
  • Each label is a single .lbv file that carries its own images, so copying the folder copies everything.
