File Comparison App With A Proper View
So far the file comparison apps are not very intuitive to use.
But please do not go on about that. What I am looking for is one that will display unicode like Windows/File Explorer and will show a comparison like the following. I have left out the other parameters like size and attributes but it should show these also. DRIVE X DRIVE Y FileName Path State FileName Path File1 X:\Fldr1 = File1 Y:\Fldr1 File2 X:\Flder1 File3 X:\Flder2 File3 Y:\Fldr9 File4 X:\Flder1 File4 Y:\Fldr1 A blank is where the file does not exist on the other drive in the same subfolder name. e.g. File3 is not on the Y:\Flder2 but is on Y:\Fldr9 e.g. File4 is in the same subfolder but has a different date or size or both. Attributes do not make the display put them on different rows. I have a program like this but it does not display unicode. I will do a sync in either or both directions. I need one that will work with unicode. |

I need one that will work with unicode. SyncToy has a preview mode, which generates a list of what it's going to do (copy, create, delete, etc.); this might be not too far from the format you're after. I don't know if the list is exportable, and/or whether any of the other sync/copy utilities do/can/whatever. -- J. P. Gilliver.

CCleaner displays unicode and it can export to a txt file: s ♣ÄCopy.png C:\Temp5 53.1 KB 11/7/2018 5:05:43 AM s ♣ÄCopy.png C:\Temp6 53.1 KB 11/7/2018 5:05:43 AM s ♣ÄCopy.png C:\Users\A\Desktop 53.1 KB 11/7/2018 5:05:43 AM |

I think the latest versions of WinDiff works with unicode. Certainly I've not had any problems on W7 with the version I have here, except that it won't tell me what version it is :-( but I found it by searching for something like: site:microsoft.com WinDiff W7 compatible |
