Possible Duplicates:
Syncing Tool Between 2 Folders
Which is the best application to Sync two folders?

Is there a sync program for Windows (something better than rsync) where I can select directories and files that I want to sync to a target drive folder. I need to backup specific files and folders from my system and not have to copy everything at same time.

you will have better luck asking this on serverfault.com – Tom Dignan Jul 10 '10 at 4:25

What features does rsync not have, or have poorly, that your hypothetical better product should have? – mfinni Jul 10 '10 at 5:16
i guess the real question is not "better than rsync", but "GUIer than rsync" – Javier Jul 10 '10 at 5:48

There have also been few GUI front-ends done for it over the years: technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/… or technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/… – Gray Race Jul 10 '10 at 6:07

SyncBack can also do this, also support zipping and other features for backups.
