About:
DeltaWalker is a graphical application for comparing and synchronizing files and folders with precision. It provides a visual interface to highlight differences between data sets, allowing for selective merging and one-way or two-way synchronization. This tool is designed to ensure data consistency across local drives, network shares, and cloud storage.
Key Features:
  • Visual 2-way and 3-way file/folder comparison
  • Automated synchronization with customizable rules
  • Support for cloud storage services like Dropbox and Google Drive
  • Hex comparison mode for binary files
Use Cases:
  • Synchronizing project folders between a desktop and a laptop
  • Validating backups by comparing source and destination directories
  • Merging changes from multiple development branches
Alternatives:
  • Araxis Merge – Commercial alternative with similar powerful comparison features, often used in enterprise environments.
  • rsync – Command-line utility for file transfer and synchronization; more powerful for scripting but lacks a GUI.
