To keep your files safe and to perform advanced tasks (such as keeping folders synchronized) has been in existence for many years Robocopy. This function is part of the built-in Windows commands and is especially loved by users who want to copy files quickly through the order rule.

The various tasks are visible in the box at the top. By ADD Task Add a new task, for example to synchronize two folders together. The support for shadow copies is pleasant. With this you can also copy locked files. When making a task you can indicate different variables. This way you can indicate that newer files should never be overwritten and you can give extra switch options to the underlying Robocopy. This also makes the program suitable for the more advanced user, who is the flexibility of prompts want to keep. The software itself offers little text and explanation, while the consequences of a wrong setting are great. Fortunately we find a few things clearly explained on the website of the maker.
