FreeFileSync 一款开源的文件同步软件

Synchronization Settings

Synchronization Variants

There are three basic synchronization variants:

• If both left and right folders contain files you're working on, and you want changes (creates, updates, and deletes) to flow in both directions, then select Two way.
  Database files ("sync.ffs_db") will be created after the first sync and be used to compare the current file system state against the last synchronization in order to determine the sync directions.
  
  
• If one folder contains your work files and the other is for backup, then select the Mirror variant.
  The left folder is the source and the right folder the target. The synchronization will create and delete files on the target as needed until it becomes an exact copy of the source.
  
  
• If you only want to add files to your backup, but never delete, then select the Update variant.
  Files deleted on the source side will not cause file deletion on the backup drive (e.g. after you've made room for new photos on a digital camera). On the other hand, files deleted on the backup drive will not be copied over a second time (e.g. after you have removed photos you don't want to keep).

In order to handle special synchronization scenarios you can also set up Custom rules. These can either be based on the categories determined after folder comparison (left/right only, left/right newer), or on detected changes (create, update, delete) if you select Use database file to detect changes.

Detect Moved Files

FreeFileSync is able to detect moved files and quickly apply the same move on the target side during synchronization instead of a slow copy and delete. To makes this work, Use database file to detect changes must be checked and the file system must support file IDs.
