    Hi everyone,

    I am doing version upgrade for my site. Is there a way to compare two folders or files and find the difference?

    Thanks for the help.

    Yea, Its called WinMerge and its Free (Open Source). Just Google it. I use it all the time.

    Its exactly what you need, it can compare single files or complete folders. It highlights each line that is different and shows you side by side comparison.

    It can also be done by Filezilla if you are using FTP
