I used the original SyncToy version a while ago and have just installed and used 2.1 for the first time.
My concern is more that I have a good copy and less the amount of time involved so I am using "Check File Contents".
I gather from another post that it is not possible to locate the SyncToy local settings files elsewhere and I presume that is where SyncToy keeps a record of the various file CRC/Hash data so I guess my only option is copying and restoring them when and where I need them.
The problem is, a lot of the synching I do is with a computer that I often have to restore with different operating system partitions. I have several applications I use for demonstration, primarily video related, which don't get along very well and it is always best to run any of them on as clean an instal as possible so I have clean images which I restore when it is time to demo any specific program.
If I do a synch between my two primary media discs and then restore the OS partition the local settings are gone.
Will it work if I simply copy the local settings after a sync and restore them before I do anything again with SyncToy?
Thanks, DP
