Software to sync to NAS

womble12345

I have a D-Link DNS320 NAS.

My wife is useless at remembering to run the CMD file I have put on her desktop that backs up her stuff to the NAS. Her laptop is running windows 10. Is there some software I can install that starts automatically and quietly in the background copies any new files she creates or old files she changes to the NAS?

I want something a bit like the dropbox app that sits down in the right hand corner by the clock keeping her stuff in sync without her having to remember.

Thanks

put a shortcut to the cmd file in her startup folder.

automatic syncing can ruin your backups when you most need the old version.

As above, stick the CMD in the startup, sorted.
