OK - I downloaded SyncToy from MS (free) and it seems to work almost as you described. Just has to be started as a program rather than accessible from File Tools.
Easy to setup though.

Trying to get windows software from Copy.com (15 or maybe 20 GB free storage) but PC flags it as malicious software???

I could just use SyncToy with my external hard drive, would be much faster than copying the entire DBs over each time for backups. I'll have to try and set that up later. Cloud storage would be useful for remote access, if I can get that working.

Meanwhile I want to improve my searching skills on Calibre and see how to set up Virtual Libraries. This is really fun!
No it's a free program called File Menu Tools it has lots of nice adds on like Move To, Copy To, Pack to Folder and Synchronize. I've been using it for years. You can pick and choose which add on to enabled and they go on the right click menu. I love this program.
