Hi,

Could anyone please tell me how to compare and sync with one click?

Thank you.

Just click on "synchronize" without clicking on "compare" first.

I tried that but it doesn't sync the files.

I am only testing and have 2 folders, I'm adding files to folder 'a' and trying to sync to 'b' (mirror) but using your method nothing happens.

Hi,

Delete doesn't work either. I have delete to folder (versioning) selected but unless I compare first, nothing happens.

Note: This is with the single click Synchronize method. It works when you compare first. I imagine it's just a bug, I shouldn't be so lazy.

Martin.

If you directly click on "synchronize" it will simulate a click on the "compare" button, so this is just a shortcut.
