Synkron is an open-source multiplatform utility designed for file synchronization of two or more folders, including synchronization between computers. [1] It is written in C++ and uses the Qt4 libraries. [footnotes 1] Synkron is distributed under the terms of the GPL v2.

Contents

Apart from carrying out synchronisations, Synkron provides other features. The user interface of Synkron is divided into several sections: Synchronise, Multisync, SyncView, Scheduler, Restore, Blacklist and Filters. The user can switch between these sections by using the toolbar. [2] Multisync supports synching multiple folders into one folder. [3]

Synkron is available as a portable app. [4] Binaries for 32-bit Windows, macOS, and Linux may be obtained from the project's "Files" page. Most Linux distributions no longer include the binary package in their standard repositories, [5] but the application may be built from source code. [6]
