Copy The Contents Of USB Removable Drive Automatically To Your Computer Each Time Drive is Connected

After some googling I came to know there is no freeware available which can copy the contents  i.e files and folders automatically from portable drive.

Moreover reader also wanted to take the incremental backup from his pen drive, means he wants only the modified or new files to be copied every time he connects the pen drive, so he wants to put a incremental backup of his USB drive contents on his computer.

Finally I came out with a solution with the use of a free software called SyncToy which allows you take incremental backup of your USB drive files and folders on your computer hard disk.
