I often need access to my files when away from home. Previously I used a great feature in XP called "offline folders" which enabled me such access by keeping a sync copy of my home server on the laptop.

I therefore got quite annoyed when my new laptop powered by Vista Home Premium didn't have this feature.

So, how did I go about solving this problem ?

After some digging I found that the feature in question had changed name to "offline files", and now only applied to the Business, Enterprise and Ultimate versions of Vista.

I reallized that this was a typical Microsoft gest just to squeeze a bit of extra money from us customers, but wouldn't allow them to beat me this time. I therefore decided to continue my quest for a free solution which lead me to Syncback.

After a bit of testing I found that Syncback did exacly what I were looking for, and decided to recommend this as a great tool for others in the same situation as myself.
