Detailed guide

Sysinternals tools by @Mark Russinovich are a set of GREAT must have tools, once you start using them you cannot live without them. I started using Zoomit a lot but every time I was on another workstation, I needed to download it, after some time I needed another one of the tools and had to download it, i thought about always having access to all sysinternals tools in OneDrive and downloaded the Sysinternals Suite to a folder in my OneDrive.

Then I added the synctools to the same folder.

Once everything downloaded to OneDrive open Power shell or CMD prompt an run Synctools.exe, it will check status of the tools and start downloading and updating to the newest versions.

The latest versions are now in your OneDrive folder. (I had not updated my tools in a long time before this blogpost)
