Syncing Lightroom Cloud with File Explorer?

[sophies90376812]

Hi! I am new to using Lightroom Creative Cloud - but was wondering if there is a way to 'sync' my cloud storage of my photos with my File Explorer on my desktop the way you can with Creative Cloud Files? I want to be able to use my photos without having to export them every time. Is this possible?

I'm not sure I understand what you are asking, but if you want to sync edits somehow, so that you'll have an edited copy on your hard disk that is constantly updated, then the answer is negative. Lightroom is a non-destructive editor. That means that the original photos remain untouched and the edits are stored separately. To get an edited photo you must export a copy.
