Hello finkeljo, and welcome to the forum.

We have a Knowledge Base article that offers some recommendations for working on multiple computers and sharing your project between them with a [cloud-syncing service](https://scrivener.tenderapp.com/help/kb/cloud-syncing/using-scrivener-with-cloud-sync-services). Please note that some cloud-syncing options have advisories, and you’ll see links to those advisories on that webpage.

We also have another Knowledge Base article that outlines an [alternative method for keeping projects synced](https://scrivener.tenderapp.com/help/kb/cloud-syncing/alternative-method-of-keeping-projects-synced).

The approach you choose will depend on which method feels more comfortable and seamless with your preferred working style.

Whichever approach you choose (or if you find a hybrid method of your own), I also recommend reviewing my colleague’s post about [having backup options](https://forum.literatureandlatte.com/t/got-a-backup/32512).

By following some of those recommendations, you’ll have options for recovering your work if your syncing method goes awry or in case of a computer malfunction or loss.
