On Demand Share Sync

Conrad11 · 26 Oct 2007 at 11:56

Hi there,

I have a folder on my computer here and one on my Network share.

Basically I want a program which i can run on demand (doesn't have any background services or anything like that) - just want to open it - run it - close it.

I need it to check the shared folder and the folder on my PC and if there is any difference between my PC and the Share it updates the share to match my PC (but doesn't change any of my pc files)

Anyone know of a program to do this?

Thanks.

EDIT:

I am on Vista if that counts for anything.

Microsoft Groove?

I would prefer something without shell integration.

I just want something as un-intrusive as possible that i can quickly open, press a button, it does it's sync'ing, and then closes.

Although I didn't try SyncToy, from past experience with it, I am pretty sure it doesn't do what i want.

Anywho, I created a little application myself to do what i want. You can try here if you want: Click To Download Sync OnDemand

SyncBack would do the job nicely for you.
