FileVoyager 16.10.15.0 released!

Almost three months late, but the release is finally available.
This version brings the promised Comparison tools. I will definitely post some help on how to use, but for the impatient, here’s a quick overview:

The Comparison tools are made of a Folder Diff and a File Diff.
Dixit Wikipedia,

“a Diff utility is a data comparison tool that calculates and displays the differences between two files”.

And I should add “or two folders”! Of course, there is no comparison possible between a file and a folder.
Usually, the file comparison opens a two panes window, each pane being one of the files. In FileVoyager, it looks like this:

16-10-15-file-diff
(Click to enlarge)

The Folder Diff part is also a data comparison tool that compares two folder structures. In FileVoyager, it looks like this:

16-10-15-folder-sync
(click to enlarge)

To launch a folder or a file comparison, spot those icons in the Classic UI toolbars…
16-10-15-sync-diff-classic-ui
Or in the Tools menu.

For those using the Ribbon UI toolbar, those icons appear in the Tools tab
16-10-15-sync-diff-ribbon-ui

When clicking the 105-edit-diff-breadcrumb, the two paths currently displayed in FileVoyager’s panes are compared. Even if those paths are showing an FTP(s) or an Archive.
But keep in mind that the synchronization do not support FTP(S) and archives yet, only the comparison.

When clicking the 091-edit-diff , a File OR a Folder Diff will be launched, depending on the type of items that are focused or selected.
I will post a better tutorial soon, but do not hesitate to play with it.

Don’t wait a minute, and download FileVoyager.
