Safe Merge main workflow

Build a separate result

Choose two source folders and a parent for the new result. The result is independently writable.

Make conflicts explicit

Keep both is the default. Other supported policies choose by modification time or size; ties keep both.

Review before cleaning up

Check the result and Merge Summary. Recycling originals is a separate, explicitly selected option with item-level safety checks.

Before you choose

  • This is a two-folder merge on supported local NTFS storage, not continuous synchronization or a backup service. Cloud and network folders are excluded.
  • Same-name handling compares matching relative paths. Equivalent files can share one output copy; different versions are kept separately with Keep both. This is not a global duplicate finder.
  • Optional recycling can leave items at source or in a recovery location when checks cannot complete. Read the actual result before assuming cleanup finished.

Local data and network use
  • Source files are read and the result is generated on supported local storage.
  • Originals remain by default. A selected conflict policy can leave a different, omitted variant at its source.
  • Necessary recovery records are kept separately from disposable application storage. The current interface does not provide a general history or Restore screen.
  • Microsoft Store services check entitlement and updates.
  • Opening Support or the Store page uses those external services. The merge itself does not upload files.
