The SyncToy is installed on both my PCs.

OK, I think I've got it.
So by installing on both PC's you could/can sync either way depending on which PC you are on at the time.
But if only installed on one PC, then only that PC would be able to sync the folders.
Thanks,
I'll certainly be giving it a try, (possibly tomorrow or Sunday) so I'll come back and let you know how I got on.

It sound a lot like the old Windows Briefcase program, but that would only sync with limited functions and was a bit on the fiddly side.

Yes it's a very much updated version of Briefcase and very user friendly.
Doesn't take much setting up but has a few options that I need to get familiar with, such as the Full sync (full sync works a treat) or just the partial sync option without removing deleted or re-named files.
Just a heads up:
If after creating your sync folders (or you can select existing folders) and then you decide you want to remove them.
It's quite safe to use the "Delete Sync folders" option, (it does not delete the original files or folders) only the reference to them in SyncToys.
Thanks again Dave, nice program and well worth spending a "little time" getting it set up.
PS.
I only installed it on one of the PC's, because the PC would have to be turned on anyway, so it's no trouble just updating from that one.
