1205227 2011-05-27 22:22:00 I've just got my first laptop. I'm going to be using it for school work and pretending to do work in English hehehe.

I would like to sync a select few files and folders between the Laptop (Windows 7) and my desktop (Windows XP) over my home Wifi connection. I had a look at SyncToy but it is not an automatic solution which is not really that great.

I know there would be other programs that do what I say but I'm having trouble finding them, so if anyone can point me in the right direction or help me with a solution that would be awesome :D

Any help is appreciated :)

My Windows 7 is 64bit and my XP is 32bit if that makes any difference?

1205229 2011-05-29 11:38:00 I was in your exact same spot three months ago until my client decided to upgrade his Windows XP to Windows 7, where I then proceeded to install Windows Live Mesh for easy and automated synchronisation.

Different bit-version of OS does not make a difference as long as the right bit-version synchronisation software is installed on the respective computers.

AvonBill: Does SyncBack do it automatically?
