Mouse options

I also do backups  regularly, two or three times a week using SyncToy a free Microsoft program.  I can match folder to folder or entire drives.  SyncToy even knows if I change a file name and updates the file name in the backup location which was a surprise to me.  I see the same thing in Lightroom as I do in file explorer as far as file location.  If I move a file in Lightroom it shows up in its new location in file manager.  If I add some meta data in Lightroom it doesn't actually become part of the file and seen in file manager until I execute *save meta data to file*.  Cropping and other editing does not show up at all and any backups wouldn't include the edits.  For them to show up I would have to export the file creating a new file.  The files don't actually reside in Lightroom.

I like file management in Lightroom because it has better visuals, better thumb nails, better metadata support, better search capabilities.  Also if I move files around in file manager the changes don't appear in Lightroom.  I have to execute *synchronize folder* to see changes in Lightroom that were made in file explorer.
