I could use google, but I don't know what words to use to do the search...
I need a Program, what copies the files from a map on my desktop to my external USB HDD automatic when I add some files to the folder on desktop (not backup). I need it for my music system so I could have same songs on the External HDD and on my computer...

You could write a DOS routine that would xcopy the files from one drive to another - not the most elegant but it would work.
Something along the lines of
cd\
cd\documents and settings\user\my documents\my music\
xcopy *.* /y /s f:
exit
where f: is the external drive.

Please explain
Wont it copy everytime all files? I just need it to add the new files if you understand what I mean. I add files to the folder on my desktop about once a week, and then I want the new files I have added go to the external HDD

Thank you for the reply and that seems to be a good one, but it's not really what I need :/
It's hard to explain, I need it to sync the files, if I set a new file in some of them, it should copy to the other one...
