syncthing on XP

[dapgo]

Is anyone using "Syncthing" to synchronize folders among different computers?

The apps is very good but XP is not supported anymore, but the version 1.0.1 is was the last one supporting WIndows XP.

I tried with success for XP but I haven't check on reactOS yet

I tried it, but didn't quite manage to configure it properly, and gave up. I use the latest version android and linux.

Well I've never used sync software but I have used backup software. Maybe Cobian Backup can suit your needs ? You can tell it to copy the files to a directory on another computer. If you don't compress it technically I think it will behave like syncing as it will just copy the files. You can set the time of backup.

Thank you for the good suggestion!

Hi there. I retry this thing, and living the base forlder to default (somewhere in %USER% --> say myusers\me\syncthing) works well. Make sure that before running it you modify the following lines in %APPDATA%\Syncthing\config.xml

        <autoUpgradeIntervalH>0</autoUpgradeIntervalH>
        <upgradeToPreReleases>false</upgradeToPreReleases>

        <defaultFolderPath>%USERS@\ME\SyncThing</defaultFolderPath> <---
