I have FreeFileSync Portable loaded on my external HDD which I use to back up all files from my local computer folders.

I would like to set the drive up so that when I plug the usb hdd in, it automatically runs the Compare and Sync for my configuration of folders. Is this possible? I was thinking I could use the AutoRun.inf file to launch the application in such a way that auto runs the Compare & Sync profile I have previously saved.

In addition, the drive I use (http://www.transcend-info.com/Products/No-284) has a built in backup feature that uses their own software. You can run this at any time by pressing the button on the drive case. Is there a way to run the same function as described above.

Finally, once the sync is complete, I would like the FreeFileSync software to close.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

Steve
