In this guide, I will show you how to use pCloud and all of its features. You can also add your files as “favourites” to access them when offline. Google Drive, Dropbox etc, you can back up your social media accounts (Instagram, Facebook, and Picassa) and your WordPress websites.

It has top-notch security with a backup feature. I have always recommended pCloud to anyone seeking for excellent cloud storage since there is no limit to the size of your files or the download speeds. It is among the first cloud storage services to offer lifetime plans. It has been around since 2013, having benefited from the successes and failures of the competition. I strongly suggest you change its cache folder to something on your workspace (preferences - settings - disk usage - choose cache location) as otherwise it may use up to 5G by default in your home which will count toward your quota.PCloud is one of the best cloud storage services that takes pride in providing the highest protection with unlimited upload and download speeds. The simplest way to fix this is to reboot your workstation. This can lead to various error messages when using the file manager. This is likely connected to home directories being mounted over NFS. Note there does seem to be an issue on our system where on exiting the application, it will not successfully unmount ~/pCloudDrive.

This will mount your cloud drive as remote folder under ~/pClouldDrive, integrate itself with your file manager, and also allows you explicitly sync to any folders you specify. You can mark the downloaded file as executable with chmod +x pcloud, and run it from a terminal.

The Linux client is available as a standalone application based on electron, which can be downloaded from. PCloud is not installed on systems by default.
