Microsoft introduces it's SyncToy v2.0 that allows you to store and manage your files created by digital cameras, e-mail, cell phones, portable media players, camcorders, PDAs, and laptops.

This PowerToy of Microsoft is quite easy to use, highly customizable program that helps users to do the heavy lifting involved with the copying, moving, and synchronization of different directories. SyncToy manages multiple set of folders simultaneously it can combine files from two folders in one case, and mimic renames and deletes in another case. Unlike other applications, SyncToy actually keeps track of renames to files and will make sure those changes get carried over to the synchronized folder.

As this software is not a part of Microsoft Windows so you might not be able to get any kind of help from Microsoft Technical Support, so you can use SyncToy forums, where you can find out everything related to that.
