Microsoft SyncToy Updated To v1.2
In March, I post an article about SyncToy v1.1. I indicated that the folks at Microsoft had a toy for you called "SyncToy v1.1 for Windows XP " and I thought you would like it. Well, I hope you did.
What is Synctoy? SyncToy v1.1 helps you copy, move, rename, and delete files between folders and computers quickly and easily....and that is the key folks...QUICKLY and EASILY
Microsoft listens! Based upon customer feedback, they added the following features:
The ability to type in a UNC path;
Support for longer folder pair names and ability to widen the left pane to see those longer names;
The ability to support the maximum length for folder paths, and documentation was added to the help file about how to set up a share to be able to sync deep folder pairs;
Better handling of the difference in precision between NTFS and FAT timestamps;
More discoverable link to the help file for information on how to schedule SyncToy using the Windows XP Task Scheduler;
Support for 800x600 screen resolution;
Added a warning for users if the selected action will take some time to complete;
Added brief explanations of the actions in the user interface;
Improved behavior when choosing folders to include or exclude when there are large numbers of folders involved;
Improved support for accessibility modes.
In March 2006 Microsoft again listened to feedback and release v1.2, which fixes a bug caused by Daylight Saving Time changes, and also added some documentation updates.
