A way to improve SyncToy

[Guest]

Premise: Folder Pair has been created. Source Drive: Various folders and
files deleted.

Results: When the synctoy is ran, it will deleted the files on the target,
but NOT the folders.

Example: Deleted 23 folders.....with mulitple files in each folder on the
source drive. Ran synctoy and chose the syncronize action. It deleted all
of the files, but none of the folders on the target drive. Any suggestions?

I agree with tlpenn. SyncToy does not delete directories when it is set to
synchronize or echo. It would be a good item to implement into a newer
version. Another thing I noticed that it does is when you rename a folder,
when you sync, it creates a new folder with the new name, but it leaves a
folder with the old name on the synced side. This results in the synced
folder being "messy."

Like I said, would be good to implement into the next version of SyncToy.
