Laptop/Desktop Sync

I have a laptop and a desktop running Vista Home Pre. I would like to find a
way to synchnonize the files between both computers. Ideally, I would like to
synch everything (two identical computers, filewise), but I will settle for
one folder or even just the desktop. Thanks.

Re: Laptop/Desktop Sync

Have you looked at the Windows Easy Transfer app? In system tools in
accessories.

Re: Laptop/Desktop Sync

Try MS SyncToy, the latest full version 1.4 is available from:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

and the version 2.0 Beta can be obtained from

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

They work on Vista or XP. I use it and it works great.
