| 1181674 | 2011-02-27 00:11:00 | Hi all, I would like to setup a file synchronisation system between my home computer (Windows 7) and the work computer (Windows XP). Due to the latter's operating system, this rules out Windows Live Mesh, of which I have found it to be very reliable in the past months. Does anyone have any experience with other file synchronisation software that you have found it to be useful / reliable? Cheers :) |

| 1181676 | 2011-02-27 07:57:00 | I've been using Smartsync Pro for years for this purpose and it is very customisable and reliable. I just checked their website, and it is $US45 for a single user. |

| 1181678 | 2011-02-27 20:07:00 | Dropbox as noted - quite popular, and now includes selective sync (www.labnol.org), and can do a few other tasks... | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||
| 1181679 | 2011-02-28 08:52:00 | The problem with DropBox is that synchronisation only works for folders located within the DropBox folder. I have got a folder located at C:\Program Files that I need to get its content synchronised. |

| 1181680 | 2011-02-28 09:08:00 | Correct me if I'm wrong. I looked at dropbox the other day & it seems to me that when you share a file/folder with someone else, that someone else can share it with whoever they like, they can do the same & on it goes. That sounds like facebook style privacy to me | Phil B (648) | ||
