+Advanced topics
+---------------
+1.) Synchronize in Batch Mode and send error notification via email:
+
+- Create a FreeFileSync batch file using "silent mode".
+- Set error handling to "Exit with Returncode < 0" or "ignore errors" to avoid having a popup stop the program flow.
+  In case errors occur FreeFileSync will abort with a returncode < 0 which can be checked via the ERRORLEVEL command.
+- Create a *.cmd or *.bat file and specify the location of FreeFileSync.exe and pass the name of the FreeFileSync batch file as %1 parameter; e.g.:
+
+	C:\Program Files\FreeFileSync\FreeFileSync.exe C:\SyncJob.ffs_batch
+	IF NOT ERRORLEVEL 0 echo An error occurred! && pause
+
+- Instead of displaying "An error occurred!" you can specify any other command like sending an email notification (using a third party tool).
+
+
+2.)	Schedule Batch Job in Windows Task Planner
+
+- Create a FreeFileSync batch file. (E.g. C:\SyncJob.ffs_batch)
+- Create a new task in Windows Task planner for FreeFileSync.exe.
+- Modify the task and adapt the execute-command specifying the path to the batch file; e.g.:
+		
+		C:\Program Files\FreeFileSync\FreeFileSync.exe C:\SyncJob.ffs_batch
+
+		
+3.) Drag & drop support
+
+FreeFileSync has a big focus on usability. Therefore drag & drop is supported in various situations:
+
+You can: - drag & drop any directory onto the main window to set the directory for comparison
+         - drag & drop any file onto the main window to set the directory for comparison
+         - drag & drop *.ffs_gui files onto the main window to load the configuration within
+         - drag & drop *.ffs_batch files onto the main window to display and edit the batch configuration
+         - drag & drop *.ffs_batch files onto the batch dialog to display and edit the batch configuration
