I can vouch that Karen's Replicator works equally well in Vista and Windows 7. I have used it for years to make a copy of all my data folders to another computer in the house. When I was writing JAWS scripts, I would also make a copy of the JAWS user folder and place it in my Documents folder. That saved me several times. I also started using tags so it can automatically keep an archive of my Finance folder, so that I can go back to a particular month and year and get a copy of my files as they were on the end of that month. Additionally, my daughter used to use the Open Source gimp editor and a few times lost whole projects due to strange crashes. I set up Karen's Replicator to backup and archive her drawing folder so it would make a copy every 15 minutes and allow you to go back in the archives to a particular day and hour in the last month. Surprisingly, the software never crashed after that, preventing her from turning in her Art assignments! I guess I need to set up a similar backup for her on her new Mac Pro at College.

It is a very easy, yet powerful tool that quietly works in the background and never impacts performance.

Hi Scott,
http://www.blind-computing.com/file_utilities/pages/karen's_replicator.html
You didn't say which version of Windows you are using, but this works from Win95 thru XP,
I haven't tried it on Vista or Win7 yet.
It is completely free and accessible with Jaws.
I've been using it for about 9 years with no problems.
HTH,
Rick Justice
