March 18, 201511 yr Teracopy has two significant advantages over Explorer ... (1) In Explorer, if you hit a file that won't copy for some reason (disk error; path too long; etc.) the copy aborts and you don't know what did/didn't copy. With TeraCopy, the error is noted, but the copy continues and everything else is copied. (2) TeraCopy has a "Test" option that will validate your copies. Just check the "Always test after copy" on the preferences menu. Obviously this adds time to the process ... but it also confirms you have a good copy. TeraCopy integrates nicely with the Explorer shell, so you simply highlight what you want to copy; hold the right mouse button down and move it to the destination; then release the button and select "Teracopy here". Or you can just right click and select TeraCopy; then browse to the target folder.
March 18, 201511 yr Windows can be configured to use tera-copy by default. Yes, I've got mine set like that ... but for a new user (of Teracopy), he should probably get comfortable with it first
