Welcome

Welcome to SynQaiPro

One tool. Your entire day-to-day with files.

On every computer, tens of thousands of files pile up over the years: holiday photos, invoices, contracts, music, videos, work documents. They sit on the internal disk, on the external hard drive, on USB sticks, on the network drive and in the cloud — usually in several slightly different versions. This is exactly where SynQaiPro comes in.

At its core the program compares two folders and brings both sides back to the same state. Your backup copy is thus up to date within a few minutes, without you dragging a single file across by hand. Only what is genuinely new or changed is transferred — everything else stays untouched.

But because day-to-day work involves more than copying, SynQaiPro brings the matching tools along: it tidies up folders and sorts them, tracks down duplicate files and similar photos, renames entire collections of images and documents in one go, brings back accidentally deleted files, removes confidential material irretrievably and locks away what nobody else should read. You need no specialist knowledge for this — no scripts, no cryptic search patterns, no command line.

And you stay in control at all times: SynQaiPro always works in two steps. First analyse — the program only compares and shows you line by line what it would do. Only once you agree does the second step follow: synchronise. Nothing is changed without being asked, and you can deselect individual entries beforehand at any time.

What SynQaiPro takes off your hands day to day

A few typical situations — and what the program makes of them:

You know the feelingHow SynQaiPro helps
“My photos are on the PC — the backup on the external drive is months old.”Set up the folder pair once, after that a single click is enough. Only the new and changed files are copied (chapter 4).
“My laptop and my office PC are at different states.”The two-way comparison synchronises in both directions — each side gets what it is missing (chapter 4).
“The hard disk is full, but I don’t know what is filling it.”The size analysis shows the space hogs, the duplicate finder the files present several times (chapter 6 and 8).
“Hundreds of images are called IMG_4711, IMG_4712 …”The renaming kit turns them into meaningful names such as 2026-07-26_Crete_001 in one pass — with a preview before anything happens (chapter 7).
“There are 12,000 images in that folder — I need exactly the ones from Crete in 2024, but not the edited versions.”The exclusive search combines several search terms with and or or, excludes individual ones and narrows down to file extensions. It writes your query out as a plain sentence; afterwards the list, the duplicate finder or the organiser shows only the hits (chapter 5.5).
“My downloads folder is complete chaos.”The file organiser sorts the contents into categories such as images, documents, videos, music and archives (chapter 9).
“I have twelve almost identical shots of every subject.”The image comparison groups photo series and recognises visually similar images. It also rates every photo with stars — sharpness, exposure, contrast, resolution and more — and automatically proposes the best image of each group to keep. In the comparison viewer all seven measurements of both images stand side by side (chapter 10).
“I deleted something — and the recycle bin is already empty.”The file reconstructor searches the medium and brings back whatever can still be rescued (chapter 11).
“I am passing on an old PC or hard drive.”Secure deletion overwrites the files once, three or seven times beforehand — after that nothing can be reconstructed (chapter 13).
“Tax documents and contracts are nobody else’s business.”Confidential material goes into an encrypted vault that only opens with your password (chapter 14).
“I have two versions of the same file and don’t know what differs.”When things get complicated, a built-in professional tool helps: the text comparison. It places both versions side by side and marks every deviation in colour — you jump from difference to difference instead of searching yourself. Above all you do not have to decide in favour of one whole file and lose the other: with a click on an arrow you fetch individual passages from one side to the other and assemble one correct version from both. Professionals call the comparing diff and the merging merge (chapter 5).
💡 Everything in one place
For each of these tasks you would otherwise need a separate program. In SynQaiPro the tools mesh together: what you have sorted in the organiser you rename straight away; what the duplicate finder tracks down you can delete securely right there if you wish.

All tools at a glance

Each tile leads straight to the matching chapter:

Synchronising, modernised · Ch. 4One way, both ways or mirroring — with live counters per direction and a disk-space preview before you start. 🌳Managing files directly · Ch. 6Create folders, copy them, move them between the two sides, check disk space — and restrict the analysis to a selection. ✏️Batch renaming without scripts · Ch. 7Assemble name patterns from building blocks by drag & drop, with a live preview — flexible without a single line of code. 🧬Finding duplicates · Ch. 8Reliably track down files with identical content and clear them up — reclaim space. 🗂️Tidying up & sorting · Ch. 9The file organiser arranges files by category and hands them straight to the renaming kit. In the SpaceMap you see the space hogs at a glance and tidy up directly by right-clicking. 🖼️Image duplicates & photo series · Ch. 10Detect similar images by pixels, group photo series, sort out lookalikes — keep the best image. In the image comparison viewer, overlay two shots, blend them or contrast them as a difference — with sharpness, exposure and the remaining measurements right beneath the images. ♻️Recovering data · Ch. 11The file reconstructor brings accidentally deleted files back from the storage medium. 🏷️Photo metadata (ShotScope) · Ch. 12Read EXIF and photo metadata comfortably and edit them in batches. 🗑️Secure deletion (1×/3×/7×) · Ch. 13Remove confidential material irretrievably using overwrite methods — no more recovery. 🔒Encrypting data · Ch. 14Protect confidential files in an encrypted vault (SynQaiCrypt). 📄Comparing & merging (differ) · Ch. 5Professional text comparison and merging for difficult files — resolve differences in both directions. ☁️Cloud synchronisation · Ch. 15Additionally synchronise every job with Dropbox.
ℹ️ How this manual is organised
Chapters 1–6 guide you through everyday synchronisation — from the first start via the main window, jobs and projects through to the comparison list and the file trees. Chapters 7–15 introduce the individual tools. Chapters 16–17 deal with the log, the licence and diagnostics. Every chapter can be read on its own — use the navigation on the left to jump straight to what you need right now.
