From desktop maching, backup files to flash drive,  then from laptop restore files from that flashdrive

You are running with sharp scissors when you play the game of using two computers and restoring from one to the other.  Chances are good that at some point you are going to hit the "oops" after you restore a client from one computer to the other.  The other half of my life outside of taxes is spent doing audit work outside of the office.  I learned years ago it was a lot easier dealing with client files to just use a single laptop with a docking station for when I am in the office.

I agree with the two prior posts. However, there is file synchronization software out there.  I looked into it (no pun intended...) but never proceeded.  See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file_synchronization_software  and also Google it for some newer ones out there.
