FolderClone Standard Edition 2.0.3

CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

An elementary but handy application for archiving, synchronizing, and mirroring files and folders, FolderClone adeptly handles most routine backup tasks. The program itself is easy enough to use and now looks a bit snazzier than it did in the past. We like that a shortcut appears in your system tray after installation. If you plan to repeatedly perform the same archive jobs, you can create tasks you can run over and over again. Not only can you back up a whole folder, you also can specify individual files to archive. You also may schedule mirroring from intervals of a few minutes to once per year, making batch backups a breeze. Because it packs most of the essential features we look for in this type of program, we think FolderClone will satisfy just about anyone who needs to archive files and folders.

Publisher's description

From Salty Brine Software :

FolderClone, A 'Set it and Forget it' file synchronization solution. Designed for fast, flexible and easy backup, synchronization, replication, and mirroring of important files on most storage media. (CD-RW, removable hard disk, network drives, local hard disk). Once configured, it monitors the source folders for changes and copies new or changed files to the target. This process runs in the background without any further user-interaction.

Version 2.0.3 changed how Log data is saved to disk, added a secondary folder permission checking method to ensure valid result, and added additional error handling for folder permission errors.
