Default Re: SyncToy can't work

Hi Michael,

thanks for the reply.
Actually, what I tried to do was syncing Outlook 2003 pst-files on two XP
Home SP2
machines. The pst-file is a rough 56MB in size. On the other side, the two
XP Pro SP2 machines I usually sync, the pst-file is about 160MB big, and
transfers without any problems. Are there any limits in the file size, or is
this an OS related problem?
