NOTE In a preview, arrows indicate the direction in which files will be copied, and thus which files will be overwritten. Special icons indicate conflicts between files.

CAUTION Once you have resolved conflicts or marked pairs to be skipped, run the agent before closing the pre- view. Your modifications will be lost otherwise.

TIP To locate a pair with a conflict, click the Next Conflict button on the toolbar.

To close a preview:

•Click the Close Preview button on the toolbar. You are now in edit mode.

TIP While in edit mode you can customize an agent in several ways. For more information see page 128.

Running an Xchange Agent

There are several ways to run a saved Xchange Agent:

•Double-click the agent’s shortcut icon on the desktop. To create a shortcut icon for an open agent, click Create Desktop Shortcut on the File menu.

•Schedule the agent to run at an appointed time. For more information see page 132.

•Run the agent from within LapLink: Click Run Xchange Agent on the SyncTools menu. Then click the name of the agent file and click Open.

•Run an agent you have opened in Xchange Agent: click the Run button on the toolbar.

•In Windows Explorer, double-click the agent file. By default, agent files have .LLX extensions, and are saved to the ‘My Documents’ folder.

Once an agent finishes synchronizing files, the connection to the host computer is closed. If LapLink was not running to begin with on the guest computer, it is shut down automati- cally.

TIP For a record of your latest synchronizations, refer to the LapLink log file: on the Options menu, click Logging.
