I have used version 2.2.1 for years and have had no problems at all.
Lucas, PeZett, Midas, Meks: Sorry to hear you cannot work Toucan.
billie: 'nothing comes close to rsync' ON YOUR PC, you mean. I have no need to go to another backup program. Good luck with your rsync software.

V3.0

nothing comes close to rsync. Go check it out then you'll agree.

Same with me, doesn't work from the stick.

@Lucas: Rather than using those links (which only exist for backwards compatibility with XP), you should be using C:\Users\$user$\AppData\Local and C:\Users\$user$\Music instead.

Version 2.0.5 crashes when starting from a Stick (Toucan.exe has detected a problem ...). Starting it from a HDD will cause no problems. ???

Nice program, but v. 2.0.3 is not able to handle Vista-user-folders. For instance: the folders "C:\Users\$user$\AppData\Local\Application Data" or "C:\Users\$user$\Documents\Mijn muziek" can not be found by Toucan. This is because these folders actually don't exist on my Vista-machine, but only exist als links to another folder.
