Copy Only New or Changed Files

I want to copy files and folders from one drive or folder to another drive or folder. However I do not want to copy every file and overwrite existing ones. I just want to copy new or changed files. Will ViceVersa do that?

Yes, ViceVersa will do that automatically. Once you indicate a source and a target folder and then click on "compare", ViceVersa will compare the files and subfolders and show you which files are newer / older / changed. You can then let ViceVersa copy only the new or changed files, saving a lot of time.

What is the command that we must enter that let ViceVersa decide and do the automatic copy? A step by step answer would be easier to use.

You can use the command line parameters /autoexec or /hiddenautoexec on the command line (see all options in the help file).

Or you can schedule the profiles to run automatically with one of the schedulers:
