Introduction

BCompare, also known as Beyond Compare, is a comprehensive comparison tool. Comparable objects include plain text files, folders, zip files, FTP sites, and more. You can use it to manage your original files, keep the comparison folder synchronized, compare the output results of the program, and check the accuracy of the burned disc backup. The main goal of Beyond Compare is to help you analyze the differences in detail and process them in detail. The software contains many file and folder command actions internally.

Beyond Compare distinguishes it into files or folders. Beyond Compare is not limited to comparing local files and folders, but can also compare folders and files on regional networks and FTP. In terms of Beyond Compare's display of files, files with folder nature, such as ZIP files and CAB files, will be processed as folders. Beyond Compare can also generate files in a folder like state, called "comparison summary files". A comparison summary file is an image of the content contained in a folder at a specific time, but the comparison summary file does not contain the actual sub folders or files of the folder.

Uses

Viewing changes in archives over time

You can use Beyond Compare to view which of your data has changed or which has not changed.

Rebuild damaged data

When the data is damaged, Beyond Compare can help you recover the data. The main cause of data corruption is usually time, and incorrect actions may make the situation worse. Beyond Compare can help you quickly identify anomalies and provide you with tools to carefully recover them.

Manage FTP Sites

If you manage a site through an FTP connection, Beyond Compare can be of great help to you. The program has built-in FTP support, so you can synchronize actions just like handling remote file folders. You can use the comparison guide to generate a named comparison task to manage your site.

Keep the data box synchronized

Beyond Compare has a very significant effect in synchronizing two data boxes.

Merge modifications to the original file

Whether you use C++, VB, Delphi, HTML, or other programming languages, Beyond Compare can help you manage changes to the original file. The folder comparison displayed in the left and right windows can separate the changed files, and the file viewer allows you to analyze the differences in detail. You can easily merge raw files generated by independent work - these raw files may be jointly completed by programmers located in different regions. Beyond Compare can also synchronize raw files on different platforms.
