Banksiagirl Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 Hi All, I'm in the process of setting up my new windows 10 64 bit pc. Synctoy is no longer available in the microsoft downloads site. Brian what do you recommend as a replacement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 I can't speak for Brian, but I've switched to FreeFileSync, and been very happy so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 FreeFileSync is a good one. I've also heard of Syncthing being well regarded too. The difference between the two is FreeFileSync uses your network to transfer files, Syncthing uses the Internet/Cloud. For me, FreeFileSync gets my vote.

Banksiagirl Posted November 24, 2021 Author Share Posted November 24, 2021 Thanks Brian, I think I’ll stick with the free file sync - my internet is not the best on a good day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hsmith Posted January 10, 2024 Share Posted January 10, 2024 Is FreeFileSync still a good option please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted January 10, 2024 Share Posted January 10, 2024 I haven't messed with software such as this in a very long time. That said, it looks to be recently updated so I'd give it a try. You can always remove it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
