I'm currently evaluating Beyond Compare as it looks like the Folder Sync feature could do a similar job to (and perhaps better than) SyncToy.
I have a problem with renames and deletions of files. If I delete a file from e.g. the 'Left' folder, it is re-instated from the 'Right' folder when I sync. I would expect the file in the 'Right' folder to be deleted.
If I rename a file, again the original file is re-instated from the other folder - and then the renamed file is copied back, so I now have two copies of the file in each folder, one with the new name, one with the old.
Am I missing a setting, or are deletion and renaming not taken into account?
