SyncToy

The highest purpose is to keep data between locations (folders, hard drives and USB drives, etc.) always up to date, avoiding data deficiencies, as a backup plan for data recovery in the case of data. whether in a problematic location (mistakenly deleted, vandalized by viruses .)

Specifically, users can synchronize data of two folders located on two drives, between the computer and the USB drive, between the two computers .

Keeping folders on computer devices in sync is a real challenge.SyncToy was born as a solution to this situation - helping to create folders of data sync folders on two different devices.

SyncToy uses a new method for synchronization, this method is called Folder Pairs. Instead of broadly defining what your sync options are and then selecting individual folders, you can decide which folders you want to sync and will be synchronized in a way. come on.

However, to use this utility, users need to install .NET Framework version 2.0. SyncToy has many versions that run on different operating systems, not just Windows XP.

SyncToy can manage multiple sets of folders at the same time, it can combine files from two folders in one case, and mimic renaming and deleting in other cases. Unlike other applications, SyncToy actually tracks renaming of files and will ensure that those changes are moved to the sync folder.

Data synchronization modes:

• Synchronize: automatically update content for both folders so that they are exactly the same in content and form.
• Echo: Update and add files and folders from the original folder that the current copy folder does not have, and delete the duplicate files.
• Contribute: Similar to the Echo item, but instead of deleting duplicate files, it names the files differently

Note: Before performing the synchronization operation, users need to check and ensure:

• The folders on the left are the ones you want to back up
• The right directory is the destination of the backup
• You have selected the right backup type
• Do not save files overwritten in the trash
• Any other options you want to choose

Take advantage of the directory synchronization feature by setting up a folder on your computer, between your computer and storage device, between your computer and so on . of SyncToy, users can also sync any folder periodically on your computer with Dropbox, without having to move that folder to Dropbox.

After installing Dropbox on your computer, the application will create a folder on your computer so you can easily manage your data without having to log in to the web. And this is where we use it to synchronize between the local folder and the Dropbox folder.
