Hello,
I just wasted a good 45 minutes trying to find which file was missing from my backup folder.
Is there a way to scan both folders (on separate drives) to find the missing file, so it can be backed up, without having to examine each file to see which one I forgot to back up?
Thanks,
Peter

Start using Syncback Free - let the computer work it all out and relax while it does your backup!
+1 for Syncback Free. I bought the SE version in the end for some extras that I use, but the free version is excellent, with regular updates.

Another vote for Syncback - it is an essential tool.
