That’s file history and built into windows

FreeFileSync.

You give it two locations, the source and destination, and it compares the files between the two. It then tells you what's new, what's updated, etc. You can have it to copy over only the newer files if that's what you want.

That application, and SyncBackFree.

There's a least a half dozen programs that do a decent job.

Some are easier to understand and use than others. The interfaces differ and the help files differ.....that can matter a lot if you don't have much experience with backup applications.

In addition to the ones mentioned:

Karen's Replicator

Syncfolders

Synchredible

Second Copy is excellent, but not free

I've been using SyncBackFree for about 5 years.

I was using SBF until I just went full drive backups with Macrium Reflect.

Why would you lose access to Macrium?

I keep a Macrium Rescue USB in the PC case, just sitting at the bottom.
