About TeraCopy

TeraCopy is a file copy and move utility for Windows (with a Mac version referenced on the site) that replaces or supplements Explorer's built-in copy functions. It skips problematic files instead of terminating a transfer, waits for network or device reconnection, and lets you retry only failed or skipped files afterward. It can verify that destination files match the source using checksum algorithms, generate or validate checksum files, queue transfers, retain task and file lists for a few days, and copy locked files through an elevated Windows Service and Volume Shadow Copy. The Pro/Business edition adds commercial use, copying to multiple destinations, more than two copy threads, file list editing, favorite folders, and HTML/CSV report export. Some capabilities, including file list editing and ignore lists, are limited to TeraCopy Pro.
