Thanks

I have an external hard drive that I backup my work computer to. I just want to occasionally add files that have been added since the last backup.

If you could please help me with a backup question I have posted here https://freefilesync.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=...

How do I set the portable Free File Sync to backup (with settings like 'mirror', 'update' already configured) instantly when I plug the external hard drive into the computer I'm looking to backup?

Can I install FFS on a portable hard drive?
I'd like to be able to install on a portable drive and then plug in at my work computer and have FFS automatically backup a specific location of files.
