The PilatusBox desktop application is a special folder that allows you to work with the files and folders in your PilatusBox account directly on your computer. When you install the desktop application, you choose a location for the PilatusBox folder. By default, the PilatusBox folder is located in your Documents folder and called PilatusBox.
Your PilatusBox folder is just like any other folder on your computer. For example, you can add, rename, and edit files in the folder. In addition to normal operations, you can also perform a number of special operations. These special operations include sharing links to your files and folders, choosing which files use space on your computer, and viewing the history of your files.
Your PilatusBox folder and your PilatusBox account are also connected. If you add a file into the PilatusBox folder, that file appears on the PilatusBox website, as well as on all the other PilatusBox applications you have installed. The reverse is also true.
