SyncToy v2.1-Microsoft synchronization tool: it can keep your files synchronized on different disks and folders and can be processed at will, and you can even enter UNC to process files on network drives and information on any device.

1. Install SyncToy

The next step in the installation process, it should be noted that the corresponding. Net support is required. The path after installation is as follows.

2. SyncToy function

* Synchronize: the main two-way synchronization function adjusts the files on both sides to the latest status at the same time according to the addition, deletion, modification and renaming of files on the left and right sides. Users can imagine a scenario in which the same files are saved on both computers. If you make some additions in computer An and some changes in computer B, you can no longer determine which files are up-to-date. For convenience, you can directly adjust the files on both sides to the latest state through the synchronization function.

* Echo: limited one-way synchronization feature, which adjusts the state of the left to the right according to the latest file status on the left, which means synchronization is mainly based on the folder on your left. At this time, the latest changes on the right will not be adjusted to the left. This scenario applies when you travel or work with a USB mobile hard drive, you can make sure that the contents of the USB mobile hard drive are the current file status you need, then you can set the left side of the SyncToy to the USB mobile hard drive, and then synchronously update the file status to the host computer at home on the right.

* Contribute: this is a more secure one-way synchronization feature. It is basically synchronized from left to right like Echo, but there is no "delete" update action. Even if you delete some files on the left, this deletion action will not be synchronized to the right in contribute, which means that the file content will only increase, not decrease. This scenario applies when you have to delete the files on the left temporarily for some reasons, such as there is not enough space on the USB mobile hard drive, you must make room to store new files, etc., but you do not want the deleted content to be synchronized, then you can choose Contribute mode.

3. SyncToy interface

4. Select "Create New Folder Pair" and set the shared directory on the left and right sides. It should be noted that the folders on the left and right sides must be shared.

5. For this step, you need to choose the synchronization mode. I choose Echo on my side. Because I only need to do one-way synchronization, and it's just a backup.

6. Here you need to fill in the name of pair, that is, the name of the folder shared on the right.

7. The overall preview is as follows. The following taskbar can choose to rename Folder pair, delete, create, preview and run.

8. Finally, if you need to let it execute automatically and regularly, you need to create a new task in the scheduled task. You need to pay attention to the parameter-R and the path of program execution.

9. Later, if the one on the left changes, it will be synchronized to the right.
