Hey everyone, After a lot of work, designing, and testing, I finally finished my project Drive Mirror. The idea is simple: I wanted an easy, lightweight way to automatically back up specific folders from my PC to Google Drive on a schedule. Just a clean, one-way mirror from PC to Drive that runs quietly in the background, keeps my data private, and makes sure my cloud files never get wiped by mistake. What you'll find in the app right now: Strict One-Way Mirroring: Syncs from PC to Drive on your schedule. It sits quietly in the system tray and catches up automatically if your PC was asleep. No Permanent Deletions: Deleted local files go to your Google Drive Trash (for 30 days), never wiped forever. 4 Safety Guards (It stops and asks you if something looks wrong): 1. Missing Folder: Won't wipe your Drive if an external hard drive gets unplugged. 2. Volume Serial Check: Checks the disk hardware ID so plugging in a different USB stick with the same drive letter won't ruin your backup. 3. Mass Deletion Tripwire: Stops immediately if more than 50% of your files suddenly disappear. 4. Duplicate Folder Guard: Stops instead of guessing if two folders on Drive have the exact same name. Multi-Account Support: Connect multiple Google accounts with completely separate folders and schedules. Important things to know: 100% Free & Private: Open-source (MIT), no ads, no tracking, and no middleman server. You use your own Google Cloud OAuth client (the app walks you through it step by step), and your secret is encrypted locally on your PC using Windows DPAPI No one can see your data. Solo Project Note: I'm just one developer building this, not a company. I wrote 521 automated tests to make sure the sync engine is safe, but real-world testing always shows new things, so expect you might run into a bug. I'd really appreciate your feedback if you try it out: Did any errors or bugs show up during setup or syncing? Was the Google OAuth walkthrough easy to follow or complicated? Is the UI clean and fast, or did anything feel confusing? What features or extra safety checks would you want me to add next? Every comment or suggestion will help me improve it a lot.
