It also lets you skip pairs of folders and files and resolve conflicts. Unless you specify otherwise, you preview each agent before you run it. You can run an agent from the Windows desktop, from within Laplink, or you can schedule it to run in your absence. Note: Only agents that you schedule to run unattended will proceed without a preview. · Dealing with conflicts When you are keeping folders on two computers in sync, a conflict occurs when a file has been modified on both computers since the last time you synchronized. You can handle these conflicts when you preview or run the agent, or you can set options to handle them automatically. · Conflicts between files Conflicts occur when you modify a file on both of your computers. Since both files are new, you need to decide how to handle them: · · Copy either the older or the newer file to the other folder, replacing the file already in that folder. Copy either the older or the newer file to the other folder and give the file a new name.
