Shuffle Sync is a very simple program which allows you to copy random files of a specific type (usually music or video files) to a target path or drive. Please do be careful with the "Delete all files" option and the target path.

Shuffle Sync allows you to:
- Fills the target drive to full capacity
- Specify the source folder
- Specify the target drive (letter)
- Specify the target folder
- Specify the file type(s)
- Empty target folder before copying files

Upon clicking on the "Shuffle Sync" button, the application will check and warn for the following:
- if drive is a FIXED drive (usually hard drives)
- if drive has a total capacity of more than 64GB
- if the "delete all files" checkbox is marked

If the user approves of all warnings, the application will proceed to sync files from the source to the destination (deleting all files in the destination folder if the "delete all files" checkbox is marked).

This application probably requires the .NET Framework 4.5.2 (get it here https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42642. Compatibility in different versions of Windows is still unknown.

This application is a study project: this is my first C# application. Help and feedback would be appreciated.

This project was created with Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition.

Changelog
v.1.3.2 (2016/04/26 01:05 GMT+08:00)
