Product Description From the Manufacturer
FolderMatch is the solution to your data backup problems! FolderMatch is fast. Foldermatch compares large system folders, even the Windows system folders, in only seconds. You won't have any trouble figuring out how to get started with FolderMatch. The first time you run it, you are given the opportunity to view a brief animation which quickly and easily demonstrates how to use the software. FolderMatch will synchronize your PC with an atomic clock on startup, if you want. This is advisable, since FolderMatch relies pretty heavily on timestamps. FolderMatch creates reports which you can view in FolderMatch or Ms Word, if you like. FolderMatch can also check for file differences according to size or contents. FolderMatch can even use cyclic redundancy to check the data integrity. You can use FolderMatch to find duplicate files and eliminate them, saving drive space. There are a thousand different ways you can use this terrific file management utility. With FolderMatch, backing up important folders is a real breeze. Not only that, but you can see what's going on, and it's a lot faster than copying an entire large folder. Try copying the Windows folder and see how many error messages you get. It's nearly impossible to back up a Windows system folder just using normal file copy methods. Here is how you can back up your files on an external USB drive using FolderMatch: 1. Pick a folder on main drive C:
2. Pick the same folder on your backup drive F:
3. Click the "compare" icon in FolderMatch (The differences show up right away.)
4. Click the "synchronize" icon in FolderMatch. (There are various options to choose.)
5. Choose "move the orphan files to the right side" (that's my backup drive F:)
6. Then run "compare" again. If it shows you that some files on the right are older, then just tell FolderMatch to copy over them. If there are extraneous files on the right, then delete them. This saves space on your backup drive. There are lots of other ways to set up FolderMatch too. It's really easy, and quite adaptable to a variety of file management needs.
