Synchronize USB +sticks with variable drive letters

USB +sticks often have different volume names assigned to them when +plugged into two distinct computers. In order to handle this +flexibility FreeFileSync is able to process directory names relative +to the current working directory.

Thus +the following workflow is possible:

Replace + the absolute USB directory name in your configuration by a relative + one:
E.g. "E:\SyncDir" + -> "\SyncDir"
+
Save + and copy synchronization settings to the USB stick: + "E:\settings.ffs_gui"
+
Start + FreeFileSync by double-clicking on "E:\settings.ffs_gui"
=> + Working directory automatically is set to "E:\" + by the operating system so that "\SyncDir" + is interpreted as "E:\SyncDir" + during synchronization.
