Synchronize via Removable Drive

Synchromat doesn't merge the contents of two divergent versions of an individual file--it synchronizes the contents of directories by propagating the most recent version of each file to all synchronized directories. When two systems or devices can be connected directly to each other, Synchromat can synchronize folders directly. Sometimes two systems (e.g., a home and office PC) are never directly connected. In such a situation you can synchronize folders on the unconnected systems indirectly using an intermediate, portable device, such as a USB flash drive. The procedure for doing this is outlined below.

Start Synchromat on the first computer specifying your working folder (for instance, My Documents) and the USB drive (or some folder on the USB drive). and synchronize. Go to the other computer and do the same. When you return to the first computer, repeat the procedure to update that system with any updated files. After that you can modify, add or delete your files on any device, synchronize, and the modifications are propagated to the other system. Using this mechanism, files are copied automatically from device to device--you don't have to remember which files have been modified, nor which device has the latest version of any given file. The application does all of that for you.
