Very cool macro. I use SyncToy, which has been discontinued.

I remember synctoy. I guess MS decided not to put it in the new powertoys.

I do the robocopy thing manually, though it can easily be put in a batch file and run through the task scheduler.

I used to build desktop images. Robocopy made it easy to continuously update my installation media.

FreeFileSync is a free and open-source folder comparison and synchronization program available for Linux, Windows, and Mac. I swear by it for all my disk sync operations. It is advert-free, powerful, fast, light on system resources, and provides a side-by-side visual comparison of the source and destination folders. This way the user can review the changes and uncheck or define filters for files and subfolders you don't wish to sync. On my Linux system it routinely scans well over a half million files in under 5 minutes. I'm always happy to endorse quality FOSS applications.

That's a good utility. I've heard of it, but never used it.

I read this magazine. They usually have good suggestions for utilities like that. Cyberlink makes some good software.

I found this one on zdnet. It's free, from what I'm reading.

This is all for windows, by the way.

On a related note, I hate this software as a service crap. Paying monthly subscriptions to use software is just wrong. Let me pay my one time license, and be done with it.
