I'm looking for a good and FREE sync program, so that i can backup multiple files to another hard drive. I know that there's Microsoft's SyncToy, but it requires NetFramework, which i don't have. I tried to find with Google, but didn't find any free program.

Also good, if someone can tell how to make a batch file to copy multiple files to another hd.

Edit: I found a program called Karen's Replicator, but i have a problem with it. I made a new filter to copy .ini and .adr files from one folder, but it only copies those .ini files from that folder. Why is that?

All versions of netframwork are available for download from Microsoft. Look at the link below.

Note: Netframework versions are version specific. In other words, they do not replace the older version. You must download the required version. There is no harm in having multiple versions installed.
