Sync & Mirror

Change-journal driven sync that knows what changed in seconds and never deletes without a preview.

The problem

FreeFileSync rescans everything each run. robocopy /MIR deletes silently. SyncToy is gone.

Features

  • NTFS USN journal detects changes without rescanning
  • Three-way state database to detect true conflicts
  • Diff preview before anything is deleted, with versioned trash
  • Verified copies via the Copy Engine
  • Scheduled or on-change runs through the Job Engine

Who it is for

Architect

Project folder to an external SSD every evening

The change journal picks up the 40 changed files in two seconds instead of rescanning 400,000.

Video team

Two editors sharing one drive

Three-way state detects edits on both sides and asks instead of overwriting.

Admin

VM export folder to the NAS

A scheduled mirror with versioned trash for exports that were deleted.

Benefits

  1. Mirrors in seconds instead of long scans
  2. Nothing deleted without a preview
  3. Conflicts detected, not silently overwritten

Built to be trusted

  • Deletions go to a versioned trash with retention
  • Journal gap detection triggers a safe full scan
  • Never mirrors onto an empty target without typed confirmation

Good to know

USN only exists on NTFS and ReFS. On exFAT USB drives and network shares we fall back to a scan, like everyone else.

Under the hood

For technical readers
  • FSCTL_READ_USN_JOURNAL and FSCTL_ENUM_USN_DATA
  • ReadDirectoryChangesW fallback
  • SQLite three-way state store
  • Copy Engine
