(edit.1) my confusion as to what .bat runs! of course it runs the ..Cmd.exe - duuuh ;\
(edit.1) please bear this in mind when reading. The manual run of the gui .exe is the culprit and 'this' is my sticking point. Thanks
If run SyncToy.exe manually crashes with the "...has encountered a problem and needs to close..." pane.
Error signature:
EventType : clr20r3 P1 : synctoy.exe P2 : 2.1.0.0 P3 : 4adc2ea2

------------
Strange thing is once setup and figured out how to use Task Scheduler with two levels of .bat so that cmd pane pops up and then minimizes etc.
Have 5 jobs (with 2 .bat files for each) and various timings down to 10mins and one set once per day overnight.
All works great... I can even run cmdLine ver: SyncToyCmd.exe and just append the "" strings from any of the .bat files and works OK.
IE,
...> SyncToyCmd "C:\Program Files\SyncToy 2.1\SyncToyCmd.exe" -R "Program Files" >> "C:\Program Files\SyncToy 2.1\SyncToy_FolderPairs.log"
MY QUESTION
whats going on??? Obviously when first installed it ran so gui was there to allow me to play around and eventually create folderPairs.
I need to sync a wifi device on my lan but that means creating a new folderPair (am assuming sync will work on lan...)
What alternatives do I have?
1. Should I do ALL full syncs and then reinstall 2.1?
2. Is there something in registry (missing or corrupted?) or a missing file somewhere? that is causing gui exe to crash?
helllllp... :)
