When using computers, it is necessary for us to do a file synchronization to always meet a perfect match, for example, sync files between a local hard driver and a removable driver, or between a local hard driver and remote network driver. Here, we will discuss some ways on how to sync files in daily life.

Normally, when trying to sync two files, what we also do is to copy and then paste it to our destination (to other disks or home computer for further usage). This will be useful when the file is not too large. On the contrary, it will be an unhappy experience and a routine task because we have to repeat it times a day. Seriously, sometimes there are so many files that have been changed that we will forget whether we have copied a specific file or not, which will greatly affect our working efficiency. But if there is a file synchronization utility in hand, we can easily solve this problem in minutes. Don’t worry! A program named Duplicate File Cleaner will help us sync files relaxingly.

As what it is suggested, Duplicate File Cleaner is a program which helps to easily scan and then delete kinds of duplicate files (duplicate documents /emails/ music/ pictures) from the computer. I came to it because of the recommendation of my friend when trying to remove iTunes duplicates. Its package “Sync” function allows us to sync files as what you can see below:

1) Run Duplicate File Cleaner.

2) Click “Advanced” tab at the top and then “Sync”.

3) Navigate the two files to be synchronized by clicking the “Left Folder” and “Right Folder”, click “Scan Now” to proceed.

4) Once the scan finishes, we will see a file list telling the difference between the two files, for example, which one is newer or larger.

5) Then we can simply click “Synchronize” to sync the files / folders.

With the rather simple steps above, we can quickly sync files/folders in minutes. So no matte when you want to do with file synchronization, do remember to rely on this program so as to get rid of trouble to copy and past what you need again and again, saving your time and improving the working efficiency.
