Hello BigBri5050,
If you have MobileSheets installed on each machine, you definitely won't have any need for the companion software. The companion app is really just meant for you to be able to edit a device's library over WiFi if you like to do it on a separate PC. If you modify the library on one device, there are multiple ways of synchronizing that change to the other device:
1) Use the cloud such as OneDrive to sync files manually. The contents of C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Local\Packages\41730Zubersoft.MobileSheets_ys1c8ct2g6ypr\LocalState must be kept the same on each device.
2) Use the library sync feature in MobileSheets itself to sync the devices over WiFi or the cloud. To access this, tap the three dots at the top right corner of the library screen and then Sync Library->Sync to another device (or Sync to a cloud folder).
3) Use a different file sync mechanism such as a network share and just copy files back and forth as needed to the storage location. You will always need to copy mobilesheets.db in the directory listed above in order for this to work (or just use the default storage location and sync that entire folder which covers everything).
Let me know if you have any questions.
Mike
