Like its predecessor, SyncToy 2.0 is a free download that lets you synchronize files across multiple folders and/or computers.<BR /><STRONG></STRONG><BR />But there are a few new features under the hood:
<UL>
    <li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Dynamic drive letter assignment: change a drive letter and SyncToy will automatically pick up on the change</LI>
    <li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">SyncToy now detects and synchronizes folder deletions, renamings, and creation</LI>
    <li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Exclude files based on names <BR /></LI>
    <li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Filter by file attributes like read-only, system, or hidden</LI>
    <li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Sync encrypted files</LI>
    <li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Rename folder pairs</LI>
</UL>
This is still beta software, so if you crave stability, you might want to stay away. But SyncToy was already a pretty awesome tool for sharing or backing up data. And SyncToy 2.0 seems to offer some nice improvements.<BR />[via <A href="http://www.winbeta.org/comments.php?id=11389&catid=1&highlight=synctoy">WinBeta</A>]</DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/97A68ECB-A5E4-4B5E-B6FF-D734BEE6374B/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
