Its open source, fully portable, and multilingual ; and it can schedule backups and has many advanced options like DST correction and regexp settings.

It's a damn shame that this program is discontinued, since I find this little utility to be a quick and easy way to set and forget scheduled backups. You can go simple and tell it to back up everything within a specific directory, or you can tell it to copy files that match, or don't match, any number of different criteria, thanks to regex support. It still runs on Windows 10, and can even be set up to backup at regular intervals, regardless of whether you installed it or used the portable version. I'll probably be sticking with this until I find a different tool that does the job better.
Small and simple to use.
Just what I needed.
No update since 2012...
After 5 minutes of reading up on what the different options do, it becomes very intuitive to use and does exactly what you want it to: Synchronize selected folders or files or folders+subolders and all its content, etc. to a specific locations. By creating different profiles, you can impose the exact synchronization behavior you desire!
