Folder Syncronization Solutions?

[Tomato]

Hi Guys,

Just wanted to get your takes on what I should do for folder syncs. So I am going back to school and I have a desktop and a laptop. What I wanted to do was, to do work on my laptop and have that then sync over to my desktop. And vice versa.

The hope here was that I wouldn't have to download some other app. I have MS Groove but that seemed too much work to drag and drop the files which I have updated.

Any ideas??

For simple sync between folders accessible on one computer, you might try Microsoft SyncToy. For folder sync between machines over the internet on Windows, I use DeltaCopy, a Windows wrapper of the linux program rsync.
