FileSink: FileSink.zip   - A very simple file synchronizing application.

Version 1.02  10/31/09 : Just a tad faster :-)

 

Up and Down move the selected pair up or down in the queue list.


Copy: Begins scanning the folders in the list.  Any file that does not exist in the destination will be copied, and any file that is newer will be updated.

Clean: Scans the destination for any files that do not exist in the source and deletes them in the destination.  Note: You should do a copy before clean to ensure the folders are correct, otherwise your recycle bin may get full fast.  This is also very important if you have files being copied in both directions.  All of the new/changed files would be deleted.

Remove: Removes the selected folder pair.

Stop: Stops the operation after the next file is finished.


Auto Copy/Close: Begins copying when you run the program and exits when done.

Auto Shutdown and Hibernate: Shuts down or hibernates when auto copy/close is enabled

 
Time Limit: Ends the sync process when the time expires and exits.  If the above options are selected, it will shutdown or hibernate.

To set up a pair of folders to synchronize, you must first drag and drop the source folder over the application, then drag and drop the destination. Continuing to drag folders will create more pairs to synchronize.  To copy files in both directions, just drop them in the opposite order like Folder1, Folder2, Folder2, Folder1, so you have 2 pairs like in the example above. To synchronize individual files, first drop the source file then the destination folder.
