The latest release of Easy2Sync for Files has a nice new feature. It can help you synchronize your FileZilla (an FTP client) configuration between several computers.

Here’s how to use this feature:

1. Install Easy2Sync for Files (Freeware Edition is enough for this)
2. Create a new task
3. For the data source use the drop down box (black triangle on the right) and select FileZilla
4. Repeat for the second data storage.

That’s all.

Here’s a screenshot of the data storage with the new option:

Happy Birthday!

The 40th version of Easy2Sync for Files is here. Version 1.40 offers an easier creation of tasks to synchronize FileZilla configuration files. Furthermore it’s now faster to sync while the “hidden files” filter is active.

More info about the software can be found on the file sync page.

The new version of our file sync tool Easy2Sync for Files is available. Once again it features a number of detail improvements about environment variables, tabs, icons and butterflies.

More information about the program can be found on the program’s file sync homepage.

The new version 1.38 of Easy2Sync for Files is available. Apart from several smaller bugfixes and improvements the biggest news are the “Custom steps”. They allow Easy2Sync to run commands (like in batch files) before or after the sync.

More info about the program can be found on the file sync homepage.

A new version of Easy2Sync for Files is available. This time, there’s a big number of changes. The dialog “synchronization overview” was completely reworked and is now much clearer. If you want, you can now turn off the butterflies (just like in Easy2Sync for Outlook) in the “View” menu.

Furthermore:
» Progress bar in the taskbar (req. Windows7)
» Installations on USB devices are automatically recognized
» The log file is easier to reach
» It’s easier to use the service menu under Vista/Windows7

As usual, the update is free for all registered users. More info about the software can be found on the file sync homepage.

A quick update for Easy2Sync for Files: Version 1.36. In the previous version using the “safe copy” option could lead to the stopping of the entire task. This is fixed now. In general this options is useful for safely copying files over unstable networks.

Furthermore a problem with the lock files was fixed (they’re useful if you run competing syncs on multiple computers).

As always the update is free for our registered customers. For more info about the product, please refer to the File sync page.

We’ve just released Easy2Sync for Files 1.35. There are two major changes in the program. First, the update includes an improved support for unreliable networks. Wireless, dial-up, VPN, etc.  Easy2Sync is now much better at detecting broken connections and incorrect server responses to protect your data.

The second change is a reworked user interface with new icons. Hope you like.

The update is (as always) free for registered users. For more info please refer to the file sync page.

One of the many small features that Easy2Sync for Files has is that it supports you when searching for the right folder. The folder where your browser stores your bookmarks, for example.

Simply create a new task in Easy2Sync and instead of entering a folder, click on the small black triangle on the right. The combo box will open and present you (among other things) a choice of your browser bookmarks. Simply choose yours and repeat this for the second computer. This works with the Freeware Edition for the browsers Opera and Firefox. (IE users will need the Home or Business Edition because of the subfolders.)

We’ve released the version 1.05 of our file duplicate search tool. The old version could crash when encountering errors in the file system. That is fixed with the new version.

For more information, please refer to the info page of our file duplicate search program. As usual, the update is free for registered users.

The new version 1.34 of our file sync tool is out. The major change are the two new task types:

• Copy files always
• Delete files

The first one allows you copy files even when they seem be unchanged. This is great for creating backups of TrueCrypt containers because they change neither size nor date, when their contents are changed.

The second task task makes it easier to automatically deleted unwanted files. The nice twist here is that you can combine it Easy2Sync’s filter options for file and path names and file age.

You can find more information about Easy2Sync for Files on the file sync page.

Both Easy2Sync for Files and Easy2Sync for Outlook offer the option to summarize multiple tasks (via file > new) into a “task collection”. This is very useful if you wan to synchronize multiple folder trees or PST files in a row. Furthermore you can (via the menu ‘View’) hide all tasks from the main list that are already member of a task collection. This makes the list shorter and easier to read.

Only downside: Sometimes you want to run just a single task of the task collection. But you can’t do that if the task is hidden.

The trick here is very simple and very useful: Use the right mouse button to click on the task. The context menu contains not only the usual commands (like ‘Edit’), but also all tasks that are a member of that task collection. Now one click is enough to run the specified sync task.
