FAO: Oldus Gittus, Ref: USB Memoery stickage.

I had a look at that SyncToy thing at the weekend, 'cos it looked so swish I thought I'd use it myself.

Now the thing is, unless I've missed something (I had had a few light ales when I looked) it does a brilliant job of syncing your PCs files to your memory stick, but it doesn't keep them synced - it only copies when you remember to run the program.

Dun't know if that was good enough for you - I thought you wanted to be able to just pull the whotsit out of the computer at the end of the day safe in the knowledge that it was up-to-date without you needing to do anything - that's certainly what I wanted. But synctoy isn't quite there.

        Surely just hanging the washing out wouldn't make you need 40 cups of tea? (General Chat) - megson, Jun 30, 14:16:21

        Maybe, but surely you want it to sync when the document changes? (n/m) (General Chat) - BerlinCanary, Jun 30, 14:10:08
