SyncToy v2.1
Found this Awesome file/folder synchronization tool from Microsoft on these forums with a step by step guide on how to setup your first synchronization task!
I did those steps and the programs works like a charm! It synchronized my Software folder from my D: Drive to my F: Drive (external HDD). It deleted whatever files were deleted from my original (source folder) that were still existent on my F: drive and then it copied the new files from my source to my destination folder! Lovely free tool!

Re: SyncToy v2.1
A nice tool, though I prefer Robocopy (included in Windows Vista and above). To mirror (delete files/dirs no longer on the source) your User folder to a folder on an external HDD for instance, you could use this command:
Code:
The /XJD stands for "eXclude Junction points for Directories" which if not specified can cause infinite loops.
