Thanks, everyone!

Zip Copy! Managed to boot a machine I haven’t touched in years and it was still on there. Still couldn’t find it online, so I sneaker netted it over from that machine (and just barely — it was a laptop where only half the screen worked)

I had been using ExamDiff for directory sync, which I’ve used for a long time for diffing files, but when you compare directories, it doesn’t collapse a deeply nested tree and still show you where the differences are, or I don’t know how to do it. It’s just a flat list of 8 bazillion different files with no context.

Anyway, you all have given me a lot of nice options on utilities to check out. I’ll do that and see if I like any of those better.

I like SyncToy, it’s actually written my Microsoft though they state they will not support it. OTOH there are two versions, so in a sense they continue to support.
