Upgrade Storagechanging Links to copy
Hey there,
I have a question regarding the "links" and "copies" which can be stored in Zotero. Since links can not be synced in a way that they work on Linux and Windows at the same time, I was thinking to convert all links to copys (syncing works fine with those).
However, I am not very keen on changing all "links" to "copies" manually since that would probably take ages.
So my question is: Is there any way to press a button or something similar that changes the "link" to a "copy"? As far as I understand it, the only thing the "copy" does, is copying the linked file into the Zotero folder. So in principle there should be a way to convert all links automatically. But I cannot find such a feature in Zotero. Is there another easy way to do this or do I really have to convert all of the files myself?
Thanks for the help
