1247839 2011-12-08 22:31:00 I have got two folders of lots of pictures on two different hard drives, one is our current set of photos and the other folder on the other hard drive is the photos from a backup,

What happened was a few days ago, one of my family members accidentally deleted a couple of folders of photos! :annoyed: (Don’t ask how they managed to do that! :waughh: :rolleyes:),

So now I need to compare the two folders and find out what folders / files got deleted! so I can put them back!

Does anyone know of any programs that can do this?
