Hello NumberFour,
You cannot select a user's directory who is logined in to the PC currently to backup it to NAS via readyCloud.
If you want to backup one user's directory via readyCloud, please login to PC with another user and try again.
Best Regards.

Thanks for information !
I managed to do it by logging in with another account as you said, and then, logging in with the account to save, and sync is processing correctly after that.
In fact, that's only the selection which is impossible through UI, but the sync process seems working well (and doesn't depend on account with which you're logged in)
And when you're logged in with the other account, the sync of the account to save is not possible without giving extra permission to do that. because natively, you don't have access to it.
