+**Docs**: https://rclone.org/docs
+**Filtering**: https://rclone.org/filtering/
+**Forum**: https://forum.rclone.org
+  * **Command-line tool to manage files on cloud storage**
+  * Multi-platform, including Windows, Linux and MacOS
+  * No installation required for Windows, just unzip into folder of your choice
+<note tip>**This tool seems to offer the best performance when uploading/moving/migrating large shares to/from cloud storage.**</note>
+==== Configure Remote ====
+<file>
+cd c:\Support\rclone\rclone
+.\rclone.exe config
+</file>
+Choose **WebDAV** for many cloud services, enter the WebDAV URL, username and password.
+<note tip>
+VA Cloud Storage URL:
+''https://cloud.virtualarchitects.com/remote.php/dav/files/<username>/''
+</note>
+<note>**Copy**: copy files from source to dest, skipping identical files, does not delete files on destination
+**Sync**: make destination the sames as source, delete anything else on destination</note>
+==== Copy ====
+Example copy a drive to the cloud, excluding dot files and some others:
+<file>
+.\rclone.exe copy x:\ remotename:foldername --exclude '.**' --exclude=**.tmp** --exclude *.ffs_lock --exclude Thumbs.db --progress --log-file=foldername.txt --dry-run
+</file>
+<file>
+--dry-run
+--progress
+</file>
+==== Sync ====
+<file>
+.\rclone.exe sync ...
+</file>
+The sync subcommand **makes the source and destination identical**, modifying only the destination.  Files in the destination not in source are deleted.
+==== Exclusions ====
+https://rclone.org/filtering/
+Exclude dot files (hidden files with filenames beginning with a period):
+<file>
+--exclude '.**'
+</file>
+==== Logging ====
+https://rclone.org/docs/#log-level-level
+Log levels are, from least verbose to most: **ERROR** or **NOTICE** or **INFO** or **DEBUG**.  The default, NOTICE, is usually sufficient.
+<file>
+--log-file mylogfile.txt
+--log-level INFO
