About this tag
AllwaySync is a file synchronization and backup tool that can be used to mirror or copy data between drives, including network-attached storage (NAS) devices. Users on WindowsForum.com have reported issues when using AllwaySync alongside other imaging or syncing programs like Macrium Reflect and DirSyncPro. One common problem is losing network connectivity during backup operations, which does not occur with native Windows copy or TeraCopy. Another issue involves random file name swaps during photo renaming processes, where files end up with incorrect names. These reports highlight potential stability or compatibility concerns with AllwaySync in certain workflows, particularly when handling large numbers of files or network transfers.
