I like the way speedcommander lists the drives and connected drives DIRECTLY ABOVE the nav panes, this makes it easier and less confusing selecting drive/s for respective pane below, very nice feature indeed. I'm not changing yet for it seems to have the same stupid merge behaviour when copying fold...

Thank you fgagnon. that worked, but I'm still scratching my head as after using sync wizard it reports that both folders seem the same, yet the folder count in the status bar differs by one, strange but true..... edit, I reran the sync wizard check and it pointed out the missing folder,. Many thanks...

for really big copy jobs I use "Supercopy", it has several more copy features than robust transfer has.

My vote for this one! Plus the ability to flag specific files with colour coding or some symbol (for example, the ones that still need revising against the ones that don't). I use mp3tag  http://www.mp3tag.de/en/ for all my tagging, its easy and quick to use with a great UI. The reason I mention th...

I voted for Robust transfer, but....as you well know I think that it should have a option to overwrite folders completely without merging their contents, I won't belabour the point as its well covered in the other thread. Perhaps rename Robust transfer to Smart Transfer or Smart Copy  I think this f...

i'd alienate perhaps 90% of the users i have this new product in mind that will focus solely on file copy, and there i will consider your recommendation I don't think you'll alienate anyone if you have options for folder transfers in robust copy which stipulate "Merge" or "Overwrite&...

if you want to make the target folder structure identical to the source, why don't you delete everything in the target first and then paste the source on top? I first became aware of different folder copy procedures when I researched microsoft and apple copy features, I discovered that "MS&quo...

Future X2 upgrade policy, don't mind paying but...

I really don't mind paying for future upgrades, but.... I will have a long hard look at the changelogs of future upgrades because of future improvements to the Robust transfer feature, I honestly think that overwrite should delete old and replace with new for files AND FOLDERS, I don't think that me...

urrgh, that is really frustrating, and I honestly thought that overwrite meant delete old and replace with new when copying folders as well. perhaps a merge option could be added to the robust copy menu, as well as overwrite for folders, then one could select which method one would want for folders,...

Overwrite function in Robust Transfer ?

Does the Overwrite function place the contents of the new in the old thereby actually merging the contents, or, does it delete the previous and then copy new ?.

Thanks
