CLONEFILES

CLONEFILES is a software utility designed for file synchronization and backup. It allows users to create exact copies of files and folders from one location to another, either on the same computer or across a network. The primary function of CLONEFILES is to maintain consistency between source and destination directories, ensuring that data is up-to-date and readily available.

The software typically offers various copying modes, such as mirroring, updating, or comparing directories. Mirroring creates an exact replica of the source, deleting any files in the destination that are no longer present in the source. Updating copies new or modified files from the source to the destination. Comparison modes allow users to review differences between directories before performing any copy operations.

CLONEFILES can be configured to run manually or on a scheduled basis, enabling automated backups and synchronization. It often includes features for filtering files based on name, size, or date, allowing users to customize which files are included in the copying process. Error handling and logging mechanisms are also common, providing feedback on the success or failure of synchronization tasks. The software is generally used for personal data management, small business backups, and maintaining identical datasets across multiple systems.
