Thanks!

I use manual sync program myself. I like total control but most Sync programs are like greek to me and I don't trust them not screw up with all the settings. So I use the little sync add on that comes with File Menu Tools for years and I trust it. It works perfectly and is so simple to use as you can see in the screen shot that's all there is too it. You just right click on the source folder and then choose Synchronize and this little window pops up. it remember the settings most of the time but there is option to save it as a profile if you want.

It then searches the the two folders and pops up a tree list window. Icons in green are new items to be added, items in red are to be deleted. It's that simple. I've never had it screw up, it works great.
