Yes, but the task for rsync is to transfer multiple VMS with 800 GB in total multiple times. Thus, it requires to transfer the binary delta at different stages (in between the VMs are being worked on). This won't work with M$ tools to my knowledge. I wonder, the nobody ever stumbled upon this: nothing provides _windows >= 6.3 needed by cygwin-3.6.1-1 Solution 1/1 (default) - do not ask to install cygwin-3.6.1-1 -- Best, Pete
