. . . Replacing one folder with another: Clone Folder

It’s the deletion of files that makes Clone Folder useful, par- ticularly when you are maintaining a backup folder. With the usual copy operation, the backup folder over time accumu- lates all the files you have deleted from the source. With Clone Folder, those unwanted files are removed with each backup.

CAUTION Use this command with caution. Any subfolder or file not on the source will be deleted from the target.

To replace one folder with another:

1On the left side of the target window, click the folder whose contents you want to replace.

2On the left side of the source window, click the folder whose contents you want to reproduce.

3With the source window still active, click Clone Folder on the SyncTools menu.

4Verify that the source and target are correct. Change the tar- get if necessary.

5If you want to reproduce subfolders within the selected folder, check this box: Include Subfolders.

6Click OK.
