Folder Sync

Works great for backing up to external drive. Works great with Windows 8.1. Used it to analyze and sync to my external HD, have be doing it manually but no more of that. I would like to see a simple log of what was synced, or not.

Sync to USB drive in Windows 10 causes confusion if the entire drive is being synchronized. It gets confused and starts deleting everything on the drive. For folders with many subfolders the one-way sync does not always work. I set up a folder pair and ran it successfully, but on a later rerun the program began massive deletions. The smart 2-way sync hangs up as it finishes in Windows 10. Program does not respond and must close it.

Works as advertised. Use synctoy on my win 8.1 machines and needed something for my Surface RT. This does the trick. Wish it would sync to a network folder without mapping. Otherwise I am happy with Folder Sync. Updated - logging and sync to network without mapping now works and works great. No longer using synctoy at all. One request - would like to be able to reorganize/sort Tasks.

this app would be good if Windows 10 would let it run in the background. since it can't, you cannot set up automatic backups. it can remind you to back up but the only options for a 'reminder' to back up are daily and weekly. where's 'hourly' or 'every 5 minutes'? not for backing up critical, frequently changing data.
