Really, the effort leading up to this was years long…. Yeah, most of the time was not spent working on it, but so what? Everybody takes breaks.
However long ago I asked the question of if it was possible to automatically update the files on my USB drives. After some research, I found the building blocks needed to create such a system and that first system I made was crude, but effective. Since then I have completely redesigned it to operate with different USB devices and different computers, and trust me, those differences can make things complicated.
Well, knowing that the real fun of creating such a system is from sharing it, I wrote a guide explaining how it works and thus how to recreate it. Thanks to the supporting folks at OverclockersClub.com, that guide is now published, for the world to benefit from… or at least those in the world willing to work with batch files, the task scheduler, and possibly environment variables.
Enjoy! USB Auto Update Guide
