English on-screen titles; Dutch app interface. No audio.
No more full copy-paste rounds. LibSync detects per file whether it's new, changed or deleted.
Use a local or network folder as the source of truth for projects, templates, scripts or documentation.
The deletion setting determines what happens to target files that are no longer in the source. Check it before confirming.
Before LibSync overwrites or deletes a single file, it automatically creates a backup — kept separate per sync run. Something went wrong? Restore it through an explicit flow with a mandatory preview, never automatically.
Compares source and target per file on time, size and content.
Multiple source/target configurations side by side for library, palettes and projects.
Collect AutoCAD tool palettes from AppData into your local library before synchronizing them.
With synchronization of deletions disabled, review target-only files separately.
No deletions without confirmation by default.
Use mapped network drives or UNC paths that your Windows account can access.
Calm interface, even on long sync sessions.
English interface plus seven other languages.
Select one source folder and one or more targets. Check the direction, permissions and backup location.
Run the scan and inspect new, changed, renamed and target-only files.
Check file counts and sizes. Pay particular attention to overwrites and the deletion setting.
Apply the reviewed changes. LibSync first backs up existing files that will be overwritten or deleted.
LibSync works with general Windows folders. Choose one authoritative source and publish it to one or more reviewed targets; it is not automatic two-way synchronization.
Publish approved local project files to a server or archive folder.
Maintain templates, scripts, documentation and configuration files from one source.
Synchronize standards and drawing libraries to mapped or UNC network targets.
Move blocks, tool palettes, templates and support files to the company share. Optionally stage palettes from AppData into your library folder first.
Project folders, templates, scripts, configuration files and technical documentation are often edited locally and then moved to a server or network drive. Without a fixed direction, several versions emerge. LibSync turns one chosen source into an explicit, reviewable one-way synchronization. AutoCAD libraries and tool palettes fit this general workflow, but AutoCAD is not required.
LibSync compares source and target file by file and shows new, changed, unchanged and target-only files. Check file counts and total size before synchronizing. Your settings determine what happens to target files that are no longer in the source; review that setting for every run.
AutoCAD stores tool palettes in your user profile under AppData — a folder that is rarely part of a backup or sync routine. LibSync stages those palettes into your library folder and carries them to the server in the same pass, so a palette one drafter improved does not stay stuck on a single workstation.
Files that only exist on the target side are included in the normal sync deletions by default, after the usual confirm-with-counts step. Want to review them separately first? Turn off 'Synchronise deletions': LibSync then lists every orphan with its path and size, and you pick one action — skip, delete, copy back to source, or rename — applied to the whole list.
Most firms sync the same paths repeatedly: a local project folder to the server, templates to a shared library or palettes to a department share. Save those routes as profiles. A configured excluded-extension list keeps known temporary formats out of the comparison.
No. LibSync synchronizes general Windows folders one-way from one source to one or more targets. AutoCAD-specific features, such as staging tool palettes out of AppData, are optional additions.
No synchronization process is risk-free. LibSync reduces risk by backing up existing files before overwrite or deletion. Review the preview, permissions, backup location and restore procedure before synchronizing critical data.
Every sync run gets its own timestamped backup, with changed and deleted files kept separately. Restore lets you pick an earlier run, review a mandatory preview of what will be restored, and only then confirm — never automatically.
Yes — with 'Synchronise deletions' on (the default), files no longer in the source are removed automatically, after a confirm step showing counts. Turn that setting off and they're shown as orphans instead, with path and size, so you choose what happens to them.
Yes. Source and target can be a local folder, a mapped network drive or a UNC path, as long as your Windows account has rights on it.
Yes. The scan lists the status per file plus a summary with count and size. Nothing is written until you confirm.
No. LibSync runs as a standalone Windows application on the workstation and uses only the network rights you already have.
Yes. LibSync is on sale as a one-time licence per computer, with no yearly renewal. You can also download the trial first.
Use these step-by-step guides to plan the work safely, even if you decide not to use the product.
To sync a local Windows folder to a network drive, choose the local folder as the source and a mapped drive or UNC folder as the target. Compare first, check overwrites and deletions, then confirm the one-way sync. LibSync backs up existing target files before overwriting or deleting them; it does not run automatic two-way sync.
How to sync a local folder to a network drive safelyComparing folders answers a different question from copying them. A copy command asks where data should go; a comparison first shows how the source and target differ. That review is essential when a network library or server folder already contains files.
How to compare and sync folders on WindowsA shared library is useful only when people know which copy is current. Templates, scripts, standard drawings, configuration files and technical documentation all benefit from the same discipline: one controlled source, a reviewable release to the share and a record of what changed.
How to keep a shared file library in syncA central AutoCAD library gives a drawing team one approved location for blocks, templates, tool palettes, support files and standards. The network folder is only reliable when releases have an owner, dependencies remain intact and every addition, modification and removal is reviewed.
