    Hello @archz2,

    I have probably tried and used more than half a dozen or so over the years. I did find that the two below best suited my needs overall, although future needs might well change what I will use . . .

    > FreeFileSync - Open Source File Synchronization
    > Robocopy GUI 3.1 - Free Controls Robocopy Software and Configures its Settings

    I hope this helps.

    Thanks a lot! I think I'll go with freefilesync. It's got the most recommendations.
