Sure can.

Synctoy appears to have command-line switches: http://www.windowstipspage.com/synct...line-switches/

Use a datestring: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/...s-batch-script
Apparently it can be done in a sane way using powershell.

Or cygwin's `date +FORMAT`

At that point, though, you might as well be using rsync

Going the other, fully GUI way, I don't know that anything other than FreeFileSync offers the needed flexibility.

PortableApps.com offers an older malware-free version of FreeFileSync.

People have written GUIs for rsync on linux, maybe it's about time someone did the same for Windows. Lotta flexibility there.
