Synchronize

..
I have copied a folder into my new Memorex external harddrive (E and would
like to synch it with the original folder in my Local Disk (C.
When I go to tools> synchronize, under "items to synchronize" it tells me
that "there are no offline items to synchronize". When I then look in
"setup" it tells me to"Synchronize the following checked items". However no
items checked or otherwise are shown.
Could someone please advise me how to synchronize.

I'm no expert on offline files but I believe it's designed to sync files between
two different computers not folders on local drives. I haven't worked with
offline files recently but I do recall having to first enable offline files in
Folder Options and sharing the item I wanted to synchronize before it would
work.

You might want to consider using this program available from Microsoft to
accomplish your goal.
