Announcements
SyncToy 2.1 Available for Download!
Nina HMSFTWednesday, November 11, 2009 7:15 PMWe are happy to announce the availability of SyncToy 2.1. SyncToy 2.1 is a free application that synchronizes files and folders between locations. SyncToy2.1 is powered by the latest synchronization engine from Microsoft Sync Framework 2.0 and provides better performance and robustness.Windows 7 & SyncToy 2.0
Liam Cavanagh - MSFTMSFTFriday, March 13, 2009 5:34 PMWe have just completed a test pass on SyncToy 2.0 running on Windows 7 and am happy to announce that we have not found any issues. Ultimately, SyncToy is provided “as is,” and Microsoft does not actually provide official support services for it. However, for those of you that have started to use Windows 7, you should expect to have a similar experience to that of other platforms such as Windows XP and Vista and if issues arise please let us know on this forum.Important NAS and SyncToy 2.0 Information
Liam Cavanagh - MSFTMSFTMonday, April 20, 2009 10:00 PMPlease note that there are known issues when using SyncToy 2.0 with a Home NAS. When using a NAS, there is a chance of file corruption. We have found this to be the case across the board for all NAS configurations. We highly recommend that users avoid using SyncToy 1.x and 2.0 with NAS configurations.
This issue will be fixed in an upcoming release. Unfortunately there are no known workarounds for this issue with SyncToy 2.0 and previous builds.
