One more suggestion, Windows 7 support. It would be neat to be able to use a jumplist item to sync the selected folders or all folders. Something like that. Just a thought.
Also, congrats man!!

Thanks, Justin. Yes, I think multi-core processing has come up before; I need to look into it. I don’t really have any idea how difficult it would be to do with .NET.

Started using the application. It actually works really good not just for remote syncing but local as well. I use to sync my ‘localhost’ folder and my projects folder for testing websites.
My only suggestion:

Might have been mentioned before but taking advantage of multi-cores. I’m assuming you’ve used dbPowerAmp that uses each for for each file. This may speed up really long syncs with really big files.

Like the application though.

What do you mean by a “reply X number of times”?

Awesome. Yeah a “Reply X number of times” thing for errors or whatever would rock.

Rich, yeah, I had thought of that one. It’s on my list for the next version. I’m thinking the ability to collect the errors and send an email for any errors at the end would be ideal (and the ability to configure what to do when an error occurs).

Is there a way you could have UpSync log an error when it runs into one, but continue on syncing the rest of the files? Having to restart the Sync everytime I run into an I/O error can be a hastle.
ERROR: Cannot proceed. Could not copy the file “\\Source-Path\Setup.exe” to file “\\Destination-Path\Setup.exe”. An unidentified I/O error occurred.
**** Sync process was cancelled and did not complete. ****

I edited the font part out. :)

That makes sense. I'll do some testing with RichCopy to see if I can figure out where it's getting its performance gains. If multi-threaded copying is the key, then by all means we'll get it implemented. I'm still skeptical on that, though...

Thanks again. :)
