Hello,
I must also agree with the consensus that I have read here. This program is awesome. Thanks very much!
I have a feature request, all though I don't know if it can be/how to implement it.
Comparing more than two folders at once. If the program had this capability, you would be able to tell with compare content which files were corrupted, as long as you had at least three good copies of your data to begin with. The two that are the same are good, and the one which is different is bad.
Also, in the help file it says under "Compare by file content" "Two files with the same name are marked as equal if and only if they have the same content. This option is more useful for consistency checks rather than backup operations since it is naturally slower. The file modification time is not taken into account at all."
Just curious what it does take into account for this procedure.
Thanks again!

Uhm... the file content and the file content only. This is what is meant with "if and only if". I'll remove the latter remark about file modification time, since it's probably clear that a bitwise comparison does not consider it.
