SyncToy 1.2 Doesnt Calculate Deletions Properly

I've tried using the SyncToy 1.2 - apparently it does not propogate deletions
correctly. In fact, it does not ever propogate deletions.

Basically the deleted files inside the "left" folder does not propogate to
the "right" when using "echo". Also, correct me if I'm wrong, using
Synchronise should not have any deletions propogated since it calculates what
both sides have.

Request a refund.
 
If you have run Sync Toy before on a folder pair, then you delete a file from one side, the file will be deleted from the other side when you run Sync Toy again. Easy enough to set up a test to prove this for yourself, or just run a Preview to see what will happen. Amazing as it may sound, this information is actually in the program's help file.
