SyncToy Beta

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I saw mention of a new Windows XP Powertoy over the weekend, so when I saw SyncToy was available this morning I grabbed a copy for the XP desktop at the office. My hope was that this would ease the struggle I currently have with OneNote. Notably, I like to keep a copy of my work “notebook” in a separate folder within my laptop “notebook” in case I need any of the information I have in there while I’m away from the office. The burning question was whether this XP Powertoy would sync with remote folders on a machine running 2000. It does. I like this, although I still have to remember to run the sync.

    That was what I thought when I saw this post about McAfee’s screw up with the definition files they released Friday morning.
