    Still not there and seems very hard yet, today I was just trying to compare two folders from external HDD using something

    1. Can’t find a decent folder comparator on Linux
    2. I found a kinda of one but I can’t find external HDD on it cause some mount bs in Linux

    Such a simple task in windows, Linux is hardly better for regular use.

    Edit: so 4 replies one of them is about using commands prompt ( hardly useful for new users) , one says its windows fault, one of them.might be answer and one of them is related to driver issue for drive. And at time of edit i am -4 on votes. So much for linux Community and help.

    Why a simple person won’t consider windows ? Now I await more minuses I think.

      You need drivers for your external USB most likely. Unfortunately, a lot of brands only support microsoft’s malware of a OS and use unnecessary proprietary firmware…
