Compare directories

I am trying out explorer2 which can do wonders to reduce frutstrations of all kinds. Thank you for a wonderful program.

But can it help me do this: I would like to compare one folder/directory to another folder/directory to see if the first one contains any file which is not already in the second...?

Put one folder in each pane, then hit F9.

The use of F9 is described in the quickstart guide & discussed extensively in the User Manual under "Synchronizing folders"; but I will admit they are not indexed such that a query on "compare folders" will focus on the function.
