Damn! Missed that one, so sorry about that!

Updated the entry to the correct submitter and added the space! The .exe is FileReplicator but noticed on the site its File Replicator.

Thanks for the mirror, lintalist. 8)

IMHO, FileReplicator would be a lot more interesting if it could do junctions and symbolic links...

I'm not stopping you developing FileReplicator v2 :-)

From the description it doesn't sound to complicated to replicate the program (see what I did there) and call mklink or junction to do the magic.

(I don't have a need for such a program so I won't - from what I understand it is written in AutoHotkey v1.0.48.05 and for those interested it should be possible to decompile the exe to get the source code of the script - not that I advocate it)

I'll have to learn AHK first -- it's in the ToDo list. :)

My rationale was "why place multiple copies of the same file when one file correctly linked could be enough"...

After a number of attempts to find this program online, I wanted to post here and see if anyone either has a suggestion for a mirror or has a copy locally. I'd hate to take this entry offline as I think there's still some real advantages, especially with many near-ubiquitous DLLs and programs like youtube-dl and FFMPEG.

i was thinking of using this program to update GeoLite city and country IP files for various NirSoft programs but never got around to it

I went ahead and updated the entry to the installer process. I've also made a backup of the file in case that mirror goes offline.
