Speed control is designed to help you lower the rapidity of the operation if too much of the computer resources is used. Move (Overwrite all) - transfers all the files in the source directory into the target locationĭelete - erases everything you can configure the application to use NSA erasure algorithm which overwrites data seven times (it is one of the quickest secure deletion methods).Īdditional options in the main application window permit you to set the buffer size (limited to 32MB by default), adjust the speed of the operation, enable verification of written data (MD5 or SHA1 algorithms are used) and estimation time for completion. Sync (Size/date) - synchronizes destination with source items in destination that are no available in the source are deleted The choices at your disposal are the following:ĭiff (No Overwrite) - copies without overwriting if the source filename does not exist in the destination folderĭiff (Size/date) - copies if size or date of the files in source is different from those in the target location, or they do not exist at allĭiff (Newer) - copies data only if the timestamp of the files in sources is newerĬopy (Overwrite all) - copies all the data and overwrites the files in the destination The type of operation you want the app to execute can be selected from this screen as well.
Update: browsing for a directory or file of your choice is available in the application by clicking the "Source" and "DestDir" buttons in the main application window. Main window in the program allows you to input the source and destination paths manually by actually typing the path yourself, as drag and drop is not supported and there is no browsing function (this is uncomfortable for the average user, but no hindrance for the experienced ones). This detail is particularly important as it does not slow down other applications. It works independently and, as such, it does not use the OS cache for read/write operations. All the important options are available in the main application window and the only screen you have to dig out is the configuration panel.įastCopy does not substitute the default solution provided by the operating system.
Simply unzip the folder and launch the FastCopy executable.Īs soon as it launches you won’t be seeing a nifty looking interface, on the contrary, the looks are simple and the layout is straightforward. The application is free of charge and you can use it as a portable program and skip installation procedure altogether. And this is not all the program can be used for as its abilities extend to synchronizing content or wipe them out in a secure manne r. FastCopy is one of these third party tools designed to reduce the times for copying and moving data from one place to another. Windows comes with some pretty good file copying solution, but third party developers strive to reach better speeds.
