Diff Commander compares folders side by side and synchronizes files across local locations, networks and FTP. Recursive comparison includes subfolders, with tree and list views, filters and exclusions to focus on relevant differences. Profiles save comparison rules, and batch processing handles multiple jobs. ZIP archives can be treated as folders, while snapshot storage helps reconcile data between computers without a direct connection.

Diff Commander is a folder comparison and synchronization utility for users who need to inspect differences between directory trees and keep copies of data in step. Its two-pane layout presents the compared locations side by side, making it easier to see which files and subfolders differ before choosing how to synchronize them.
The program can compare folders recursively, including their subfolders, and display results in tree or list views. Filters help narrow the results to relevant files, while individual files and folders can be excluded from synchronization. Comparison profiles preserve customized rules for recurring jobs, and batch comparison supports processing multiple folder comparisons without handling each one separately.
Diff Commander works with local folders, network locations and FTP, and it can treat ZIP archives as folders during comparison and synchronization. This allows archive contents to be checked alongside regular directories. A range of synchronization actions provides control over how differences are handled, while support for external comparison and editing tools can fit the program into workflows that use other utilities for reviewing or changing files.
Snapshot storage supports synchronization between computers that are not directly connected, such as a home computer and an office computer. A snapshot can carry comparison information between the two locations so changes can be reconciled later. The program can also copy or synchronize data across local network connections and devices such as USB disks and optical media, making it useful for backups, transferring project files, and maintaining duplicate folder sets.
Diff Commander is trialware and is intended for Windows desktop use. The supplied system information lists Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10, including 64-bit editions where indicated. It is suited to users who want visual control over folder synchronization, from occasional manual comparisons to repeatable jobs based on saved profiles.
