    I had to reinstall Windows Vista in my computer. Before performing the reinstallation, I copied all my personal files to an external hardisk. Once I reinstalled Windows Vista, I copied back my files from the external harddisk to my computer. Everything worked fine. Now to the issue I have.

    Before the incident that motivated the reinstallation, I used SyncToy 2.1 to back up all my files regularly. Since I would like to continue using SyncToy 2.1, I want to reinstall it in my computer. Before doing it, I would like to be sure that each of my personal files were not "flagged" by SyncToy 2.1 before the reinstallation, in a way that will prevent or affect the synchronization to be performed by a reinstalled SyncToy 2.1. I would be grateful for any information/guidance/suggestion in that regard.

    Many thanks in anticipation,

    José Luis

    Look in the root folders where you had your pairs setup. Turn on in folder options to allow you to see hidden files. You should see a file with a name similar to SyncToy_0a5f09dd-103f-4822-ae98-860057323032.dat (the number should be different) delete these files, re-setup the pair (which will generate a new dat file for the new pair) and everything should work fine.
