AVG Free gives virus alert on teracopy.exe after installation!!!!
AVG gives virus alerts for everything that they havnt determined safe (or that companies have paid them to deem a certain file a virus- such as cracks, etc.) It also kept automatically deleting all of my university IT Security programs.
Thank you for the update, Jeff. Hopefully this one fixes the problem where it’ll freeze partway through moving files.

Already fixed this, in worst case folders will have current date/time.
Anonymous on
@Jeff The good news is that the date/time stamps for moved folders between partitions are set to the current date/time instead of being mangled. IMO, moved (by definition existing) folders should ideally retain their original date/time.
BTW, the relevant issue (#61) is still marked as open.
I am wondering what the best way to get support is. I raised 2 tickets back in May, over 4 months ago, but have yet to get help, ticket #ST00000863 & #ST00000864
Thanks, Tom.

Works well on XP for me. Tried it on a 500.000 file/100GB copy operation.
Looks like stagnating sometimes in between, but starts up again by itself. Looks like a watchdog giving it a kick on demand. Has the defect or the symptom gotten a cure?
Thanks anyway for the effort :-), makes all the difference for me.
No watchdog there, I changed a few things that might cause freezing. If you experience it again, please note any error messages in the log, number of files, small/big files, where is copy stops…
Big file list takes too much memory, it will be about half less without on-screen list. I guess it make sense to show only errors for big copy jobs. Can recommend FastCopy if you copy millions of files.
Torus on
@Jeff
Thxs for the answer. As it never really stopped, it might have been an optical effect. There was no error indicated and for most of the time I had the screen list closed. But of course I didn’t have the nerve of watching 100 Gigs move by decimal places.
I like the concept and won’t administer a dozen similar programs for slightly different emphasizes in usage.

Hello,
I tested your both version 2.06 and 2.07 beta and the result :
The Job : transfered 250 Gb data with 5000 directories and more 100 000 files of the Hard Disk to Hard Disk USB 2.0 SATA.
Your version 2.06 beta is FAILED about 17 Gb transfered
BUT your version 2.07 beta : NOT FAILED is very GOOD.
I love it
Thanks for your GREAT JOB !!!

When you say you “fixed” this or that, does it mean that the version labelled as Oct 10, have the current “fixes” you applied on dates after Oct.10? Again, it would be great with a changelog especially for avoiding these types of questions…

I have been using the free version of TC on my two machines for quite some time now.. have to say would feel quite disabled without it. Only one small nag.. in my 64bit vista-ult box, the context menu remains even if unchecked in options.. whereas in my 32bit xpsp2-home laptop this problem is not there (can anyone confirm this?).
Also I used to love it even more when it used to have the “add to” kind of context, that i feel is faster than the current one, even if it does lead to cascading. this is actually the specific reason why i uncheck the context menu.
Thanks for the awesome software anyway!! 🙂

PS.
1. You may also want to say something in your installation window of what it means to “associate with .sfv/.md5 files”. That is very unclear!
2. You may also wanna relabel the “Close” button as it is more intuitive in the Win environment to “Cancel” things as you never know what happens after you have closed something! 😉
3. Thanks for Great App! (I’m on a streamlined Vista box and still it may sometimes take 5-6 minutes to copy 2.5G! Only way (before) to circumvent was through Cygwin.)

This tool is really great for moving and copying files. I like that it becomes the default copy / cut operation handler, but I was wandering why it is not extended to deletions?
So when I tell explorer to delete a file, TeraCopy would check whether it is appropriate to move to Recycle Bin or Delete Outright and act upon it. So it would be the same as vanilla deletion procedure, Windows most of the time moves the file into Recycle Bin.
I also noticed that although with support for x86_64 Operating Systems, TeraCopy seems to still be x86_32 at the core. Any plans on going 100% native in the future?
Anyway, you guys rule.

Solved! The problem is the space between %%a and >>, now the batch file is:

del %Lista% /q

Just my 2-bits on the Virus Testing of TeraCopy v2.07 beta issue.
I uploaded the TeraCopy v2.07.rar file to http://www.virustotal.com and
they ran 40 virus/malware testers on it and got 10 hits.
I sure would like to know what is going on because I really like TeraCopy and want to feel safe in using it.

Hey, I found a bug.
If you install it on an x64 OS and try to make it default copy handler it tells you to run DefaultHandler.reg – I did this but it didn’t work. I then looked through the .reg file and saw it made mention to C:\Program Files\Teracopy – I hadn’t installed it to my C: partition though. I changed this to where it actually was found, ran the reg again and it worked fine. I think it needs something that detects where it’s been installed to and edits the reg file accordingly.
Cheers,
Dan

I use your program regularly, and am glad to see you are keeping the Folder dates of copied files. I downloaded your latest Beta ver (2.07).
I am transferring several disk images over home network. All copied contents, current folder/file dates, and tested (verified) ok except for 1 very large file.
Orig size on 500G drive is 79,218,989. TeraCopy app during copy shows it to be 81,120,244,736, but in destination folder a file was immediately created with today’s date and time and showed a size of 7,721,520. Also, the transfer rate dropped way down from other file transfers. After about 24 hrs, if finally copied, and did show correct file date and size, but failed verify test.
I repeated the copy with XP copy/paste. Copy took about 210 minutes.
I did not check the option to use “system write cache”. I might try that later.
Love the fact that I can copy hunders of gigs and get each file verified.
Is there any way to speed up transfers over network. I copy 300 to 400 gigs a day to backup NAS but takes forever. I understand that you throtle back network tranfers as to not slowdown other network traffic.
It would be nice if at user level could control the the amount the network get throtled.
Thanks Stan.

Hi,
I just tried the new beta 2.07 and started a large (600gb, different file sizes from 100byte to 10gb) copy job tonight from my local drive to a 16TB NAS.
As I returned this morning teracopy got stuck at 90gb, the current copy speed still showed 25mb/s but there was no copying anymore. It stopped while copying a really small 500 byte textfile.
I tried to get this instance of teracopy to start copying again by pausing, unpausing or canceling and then clicking on copy again, but there was no way to restart the copy operation. I had to close TC and start the process again. And now (after some hours) it stopped again.
Seems the bug is still not fixed ;(

Thanks dude.
For some reason I didn’t even think to take a look in the .reg.
To avoid false positives, use the following scanners before uploading: http://www.virscan.org/ http://www.virustotal.com/ http://virusscan.jotti.org/
This gives the AV vendors a chance to look at the file if they are detecting false positives. Hopefully by the time users download the file, the false positives have already been fixed.
HTH for future releases 😉 Keep up the good work!

.sfv files are used to check the integrity of a file or files. You can create .sfv’s with a program like QuickSFV (www.quicksfv.org). I have seen these used most often while transferring large or numerous files over the internet. You create the .sfv on one PC, then check the .sfv on the pc you transfer the data to, to check if the file got there 100% error free.

I have a dual monitor system, if I put Teracopy on the second monitor (which is to the left of my primary), and hit ‘More’ or ‘Less’ it toggles back to the first monitor.
Any chance it could be fixed to stay on the current screen, not a biggie as I have an app that will toggle the app a window is on by Win-Numpad5, but still a minor annoyance.

in ver 2.07 / 2.0:
Not sure if it’s a bug in TeraCopy or Directory Opus, but in DOpus (ver 9.5 / 9.1.1.5) if I map a key (F5) to use Tera Copy to copy between panes and I copy to a destination that I don’t have access to (only read access), TeraCopy will look like it’s copying to that folder (progress bar goes up and file names change – as if really copying – which it isn’t) and then at the end it will say “x files were not copied” and show status of “Target: The system cannot find the path specified”.
NB: The progress bar that increases is a tan colour, not the normal blue progress bar.
The same will happen if I use the icon I created in DOpus for TeraCopy, or right-drag and drop and choose “TeraCopy here”.
Could TeraCopy perhaps, at the start, rather check if I have write-access before it starts “copying”? Also the status message doesn’t make sense.
Code I use in DOpus (used by the icon) to perform the copy
%ProgramFiles%\TeraCopy\TeraCopy.exe Copy *{allfilepath|filem} {destpath}
Thanks for the fine tool. I’ve moved from XP along with your utility and I’m now using Windows 7 Ultimate x64 with this version of teracopy (2.07) and I can’t get rid of the UAC popups every time I copy, cut or move a file. I’ve tried the Compatibility toolkit several times, but UAC would ignore it. I can’t go through the 2nd workaround as I’m using 7, not Vista. Could you please look again into the problem? Maybe, “digitally signing” with Microsoft would get rid of the popups at lower security levels? Thanks in advance.
Beelzebub on
Hi,
is it possible to tell teracopy in command line mode that it doesn´t “stand stilL” if there are no files to copy ? For example: i use teracopy for backup directories. it could be possible that there are no files in some directories. when teracopy starts and find no files to copy it stops even if /Close parameter is set.
Sorry for my bad english.

After upgrading from Teracopy 2.0 beta4 to 2.07 beta, noticed very slow network transfers. Previously was in the range of 20MB/s (Megabyte/sec) but now it ranges from 5-6MB/s.

I’m a registered owner of TeraCopy Pro.
Testing 2.07 beta on Win XP Pro 32-bit with latest updates; NTFS disks, Intel quad CPU, 4GB RAM…
Moving files between two internal 1TB drives. The problem of freezing during Move operations may have been lessened but it is still crippling. When TC hits a really big file (4GB) it seems incapable of calculating the source CRC to compare it to the destination (which it tries to do before deleting the source). According to Sysinternals “Filemon” util, TC keeps reading the source file but it never makes any progress. The same can happen on smaller files eg 700MB. I just left TC trying to do this for 15 hrs with no progress.
When I checked the CRCs with another app, it showed that the files had in fact been copied fine – but TC couldn’t verify it.
I hope you will fix this since TC is overall the best copy program (that’s why I bought it).
Papoulka on
Addendum to my post five minutes ago: I don’t see the same problem on Copy, only on Move. That may help narrow down the cause. And it means that a workaround is to Copy (with Test) and then manually delete.
I suggest you change “Test” to “Verify” since that’t the standard terminology.

Is there some option to stop TC2 putting up two instances? I liked the single instance queuing of 1.22, but with all versions of 2.0 if I start one copy or move operation, and do another one, it opens a second window, and any third and subsequent copy/moves get queued into the second window, until the first window is complete and closes, then it starts a second instance *again*.
(Using WinXPSP3 32bit)
DrTeeth on
@Hyram H.
When I set up a queue of (usually ‘copy’ actions) sometimes they get queued within one instance of TC and sometimes another second instance is started. Using TC2 and cannot see why one things happens over another. (Using WinXPSP3 32 bit too).

@Torus
Sorry, maybe I was subject to a very very delayed explorer update (which might be an error of the tool, nevertheless).
I don’t want to disqualify the tool, as I use it a lot but have had “effects” time and again. Maybe always my fault, but I’m a pro.
Nevertheless I like it, I am confused.
Use carefully with sensible data!
I used Teracopy since version 1.2, but every time 2.xx versions perform worse and more bugs (they stop when they find files larger than 4 GB in NTFS), but the other day ruling the “2.07 beta” in the copy of a disk of 110 GB and damage all data leaving the album died. It took two weeks to recover them using specialized tools.
So I stopped using Teracopy to settle it, because it is more severe muco the rest of the bugs it has.
The show’s creator must realize, that above the interface is nicer or files are copied faster, more important in this type of program is that will not damage the data, because its purpose is to save them.

I even backed up 1.5TB of stuff to my new HDD in one transfer with it.

The 2.07 works better. Thank you!
I´m new to TeraCopy and and find it very helpful for building up a repository (about some 10.000 files with a total of 100 GB). To be frankly, doing this I don´t trust ANY program as mighty as TeraCopy =;)
Some notes:
1) In the beginning it has been unclear to me how some of the commands work. E.g. I didn´t expect that the program can continue automatically and doesn´t wait for input if ´Always ask´ is set. Another thing is that ´Clean up´ doesn´t simply clear the file table.
2)The reports are sometimes not complete or CRCs are missing or they can not be loaded in TeraCopy — ARGH! For safety reasons I look up ´Transfer.log´ (easiest is with a link on desktop next to the TeraCopy icon) and sometimes make a file/size comparison of diectories with ´TreeSize Free´ (https://www.jam-software.de/freeware/). It would be helpful if something like a message saying ´YES, xxx files with xxx MB were copied from … to … …´ could be invoked easily.
This said: I really love TeraCopy! It´s helpful, fast and I expect it to become a very productive tool.
Thank you so much and all the best

Big Problem with Iolo System Shield! (Part of System Mechanic Pro) –
The antivirus part of SysMechPro COMPLETELY blocks all parts of Teracopy.
Normal copy operations do nothing at all, no window no error message, absolutely NOTHING! (Not even a logged message in SMC!)
Trying to run the Executable for teracopy results in
“Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file.
You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.”
Even running as Administrator makes no difference.
This is a pity, as I found teracopy very reasonable with WinXP.
Obviously, the developer needs to talk to Iolo to find out exactly what is being blocked and find a work around.
I Can’t do without antivirus, so teracopy has to go, sorry!

Just use FastCopy, its free AND it wont corrupt your data like TeraCopy does. TeraCopy has been crap since v1.x, v2.X so far keeps creating more issues…
I have NO faith in it copying large sessions of data, i often copy entire drives around 320Gb and TeraCopy fails in better than 95% of cases. FastCopy has NEVER given me a problem….

Found a very “special” behavior of 2.01 and 2.07 beta when used for copying large files (4 GB) under XP SP3 from a local very high speed SSD in a DELL Precision M4400 to a THECUS N7700 PRO NAS:
1. When Firefox is not running the same time:
Copy of a 4 GB file from C:\ to NAS iSCSI -> app. 40 MB/s
Copy of a 4 GB file from C:\ to NAS SMB/CIFS -> app. 55 MB/s
2. When Firefox is running the same time with http://www.n-tv.de in a tab:
Copy of a 4 GB file from C:\ to NAS iSCSI -> app. 60 MB/s
Copy of a 4 GB file from C:\ to NAS SMB/CIFS -> app. 75 MB/s
First I couldn’t believe TeraCopy’s behavior. But then I verified situation 20 times…
In the Task Manger it can be seen that TeraCopy use much more CPU% in case 2..
A solution of this problem should make sense. It can also be seen when certain other programms a running: E.g. EDIUS.

Locks up for me when copying 7 files over 1 gig each.
All on the same drive.
Copies about 10meg and then locks up the computer.. XPpro SP3.
I had to reboot (power button on for 4secs) to get it to respond.
When it does copy – smaller files it is very slow to load up before starting to copy. TC 2.07.

More like 6 ‘updates’ in a year with at least two of those updates introducing serious bugs.
As I’ve noted before Teracopy is much better @ 2.07 then previous versions… Still the occasional lockup but my computer is under such immense load I don’t know who to blame lol.. Anyways.. Hoping Teracopy 2 will move out of beta soon!..
Just caught up on the comments.. Can confirm a slow network transfer (7 \ 32bit here) wired or wireless.. Sometimes when fileserver is sleeping etc teracopy will fail to transfer or cancel.. Teracopy seems slow to initialize.. Hoping for big improvements next version and to leave beta lol!..
My suggestion is you uninstall your cruddy commercial anti-virus suites and get Microsoft Security Essentials.. Top notch product from Microsoft which is updated way faster then your commercial suites anyways.

Also, on Win 7 you copy ACLs with the folder (i.e. copying FOOBAR from my desktop to C:\Program Files means it’s a writable directory, because it doesn’t inherit Program Files’ ACLs.. 🙁
Additionally, I found a strange bug: if files cannot be overwritten because they’re opened by some 3rd-party application, TeraCopy says “CRC mismatch” instead of “Damn, that file is write-protected! Maybe it’s opened by 3rd-party stuff?”
Please don’t let us (paying) users down and keep a) requested features coming and b) fix bugs like the one I mentioned above!
Thanks and Merry Christmas,
Martin

I love tgis app … use it regularly for copying files on remote computers. The ability to resume after a system hang is great. Please consider adding a log file that would enable you to reconnect incomplete sessions after a system hang or crash. That would be a great help

@ Jeff – Can we get any insite from you on how development is progressing? Anything at all?

hi, not ttryed 2.07… last 2.06b was bad(stps copying when copying a lot of files. iv gone back to 1.22 pro(reg version) which you cant download.
its been a year. i was happy to buy the program.. but you should put more time into it.. and release final version.. (working).
1. why i baught 1.22 pro.
a) fast copying.
b) tags more files on same list.
c) can pause)
new feature i like.
e) still tages on files on same list.. creats new copy window, if files afre from diff hdd (source + destination)
f) can verfy
g) can edit list
h) checks for space..dest.
keep up the good work.
as a x programmer (+ qul tech), fix xp bugs, then vista bugs, then win 7, dont add new features. if you have not fix existing problems..
Phillip on
p.s. MERRY XMASS + HAY NEW YEAR 2010,
REMEMBER 500MHZ INTEL P3 at year 2000 (jan) fastest cpu..(i overclocky my cel 450 to 700) + air con on it.. first starwars new release.. 3dfx voodo 2 12m (tnt 2 32bit)…
Please continue on the page for Teracopy 2.1 version.
fooladi on
can teracopy or other Apps (perhaps teramerge!)do this:
by right click merge contents of multiple folders(more than 2) in single folder which its new name will be foldername1&foldername2&…
and for files by identical name ask to: replace, replace all, rename, rename all?

AVG Free gives virus alert on teracopy.exe after installation!!!!
AVG gives virus alerts for everything that they havnt determined safe (or that companies have paid them to deem a certain file a virus- such as cracks, etc.) It also kept automatically deleting all of my university IT Security programs.
Thank you for the update, Jeff. Hopefully this one fixes the problem where it’ll freeze partway through moving files.
Thanks for the update. Any chance you’ll be looking at the messed up date/time stamps next?
Thanks for the update.I will try it to see it better than 2.06. Oh, by the way no virus on esset nod32 then.
+2
is it just me or this beta version registers as pro version??? thx jeff
Already fixed this, in worst case folders will have current date/time.
@Jeff The good news is that the date/time stamps for moved folders between partitions are set to the current date/time instead of being mangled. IMO, moved (by definition existing) folders should ideally retain their original date/time.
BTW, the relevant issue (#61) is still marked as open.
I am wondering what the best way to get support is. I raised 2 tickets back in May, over 4 months ago, but have yet to get help, ticket #ST00000863 & #ST00000864
Thanks, Tom.
Whether you plan to make support of other languages?
I can make program localisation on Russian.
Any chance of getting a full changelog?
I would like to see support for other languages
Still freezing/pausing with windows 7 32bit.
As Chris has reported, it does freeze/pause with Windows 7 32bit
Which build?
Works well on XP for me. Tried it on a 500.000 file/100GB copy operation.
Looks like stagnating sometimes in between, but starts up again by itself. Looks like a watchdog giving it a kick on demand. Has the defect or the symptom gotten a cure?
Thanks anyway for the effort :-), makes all the difference for me.
No watchdog there, I changed a few things that might cause freezing. If you experience it again, please note any error messages in the log, number of files, small/big files, where is copy stops…
Big file list takes too much memory, it will be about half less without on-screen list. I guess it make sense to show only errors for big copy jobs. Can recommend FastCopy if you copy millions of files.
@Jeff
Thxs for the answer. As it never really stopped, it might have been an optical effect. There was no error indicated and for most of the time I had the screen list closed. But of course I didn’t have the nerve of watching 100 Gigs move by decimal places.
I like the concept and won’t administer a dozen similar programs for slightly different emphasizes in usage.
Hello,
I tested your both version 2.06 and 2.07 beta and the result :
The Job : transfered 250 Gb data with 5000 directories and more 100 000 files of the Hard Disk to Hard Disk USB 2.0 SATA.
Your version 2.06 beta is FAILED about 17 Gb transfered
BUT your version 2.07 beta : NOT FAILED is very GOOD.
I love it
Thanks for your GREAT JOB !!!
When you say you “fixed” this or that, does it mean that the version labelled as Oct 10, have the current “fixes” you applied on dates after Oct.10? Again, it would be great with a changelog especially for avoiding these types of questions…
I have been using the free version of TC on my two machines for quite some time now.. have to say would feel quite disabled without it. Only one small nag.. in my 64bit vista-ult box, the context menu remains even if unchecked in options.. whereas in my 32bit xpsp2-home laptop this problem is not there (can anyone confirm this?).
Also I used to love it even more when it used to have the “add to” kind of context, that i feel is faster than the current one, even if it does lead to cascading. this is actually the specific reason why i uncheck the context menu.
Thanks for the awesome software anyway!! 🙂
PS.
1. You may also want to say something in your installation window of what it means to “associate with .sfv/.md5 files”. That is very unclear!
2. You may also wanna relabel the “Close” button as it is more intuitive in the Win environment to “Cancel” things as you never know what happens after you have closed something! 😉
3. Thanks for Great App! (I’m on a streamlined Vista box and still it may sometimes take 5-6 minutes to copy 2.5G! Only way (before) to circumvent was through Cygwin.)
I have this batch file:
set Lista=”I:\Peni\Lista.txt”
set dirOrig=”I:\Peni\P”
set dirDest=”I:\Work\CASA – TRABAJO”
del %Lista% /q
FOR /f “delims=” %%a IN (‘DIR %dirOrig%\*.* /b /s /a-d’) DO ECHO %%a >> %Lista%
“C:\Archivos de programa\TeraCopy\TeraCopy.exe” Copy *%Lista% %dirDest% /OverwriteOlder /NoClose
When i execute them, Teracopy always says a file not found error for each file in the list. Where is the error?
thanks in advance
I have always wondered what this was for too !
DrT
This tool is really great for moving and copying files. I like that it becomes the default copy / cut operation handler, but I was wandering why it is not extended to deletions?
So when I tell explorer to delete a file, TeraCopy would check whether it is appropriate to move to Recycle Bin or Delete Outright and act upon it. So it would be the same as vanilla deletion procedure, Windows most of the time moves the file into Recycle Bin.
I also noticed that although with support for x86_64 Operating Systems, TeraCopy seems to still be x86_32 at the core. Any plans on going 100% native in the future?
Anyway, you guys rule.
@Peni
Solved! The problem is the space between %%a and >>, now the batch file is:
set Lista=”I:\Peni\Lista.txt”
set dirOrig=”I:\Peni\P”
set dirDest=”I:\Work\CASA – TRABAJO”
del %Lista% /q
FOR /f “delims=” %%a IN (‘DIR %dirOrig%\*.* /b /s /a-d’) DO ECHO %%a>> %Lista%
“C:\Archivos de programa\TeraCopy\TeraCopy.exe” Copy *%Lista% %dirDest% /OverwriteOlder /NoClose
del %Lista% /q

خیلی برنامه خوبی است
ممنون
I take it a portable version will be released as well?
I’m actually having issues with my NAS RAID systems and I will be moving hundreds of GB off the arrays and back. I’m glad I found this beta, because I ran into the issue of Teracopy stopping the transfer of a lot of large files for no reason.
I’ll reply with my results in a few days. If not, email me.
At the end of the installer the 2.06 change notes seem to be missing.
Just my 2-bits on the Virus Testing of TeraCopy v2.07 beta issue.
I uploaded the TeraCopy v2.07.rar file to http://www.virustotal.com and
they ran 40 virus/malware testers on it and got 10 hits.
I sure would like to know what is going on because I really like TeraCopy and want to feel safe in using it.
Hey, I found a bug.
If you install it on an x64 OS and try to make it default copy handler it tells you to run DefaultHandler.reg – I did this but it didn’t work. I then looked through the .reg file and saw it made mention to C:\Program Files\Teracopy – I hadn’t installed it to my C: partition though. I changed this to where it actually was found, ran the reg again and it worked fine. I think it needs something that detects where it’s been installed to and edits the reg file accordingly.
Cheers,
Dan
I use your program regularly, and am glad to see you are keeping the Folder dates of copied files. I downloaded your latest Beta ver (2.07).
I am transferring several disk images over home network. All copied contents, current folder/file dates, and tested (verified) ok except for 1 very large file.
Orig size on 500G drive is 79,218,989. TeraCopy app during copy shows it to be 81,120,244,736, but in destination folder a file was immediately created with today’s date and time and showed a size of 7,721,520. Also, the transfer rate dropped way down from other file transfers. After about 24 hrs, if finally copied, and did show correct file date and size, but failed verify test.
I repeated the copy with XP copy/paste. Copy took about 210 minutes.
I did not check the option to use “system write cache”. I might try that later.
Hopefully this information will be helpful.
Thanks,
Earl

Love the fact that I can copy hunders of gigs and get each file verified.
Is there any way to speed up transfers over network. I copy 300 to 400 gigs a day to backup NAS but takes forever. I understand that you throtle back network tranfers as to not slowdown other network traffic.
It would be nice if at user level could control the the amount the network get throtled.
Thanks Stan.
Hi,
I just tried the new beta 2.07 and started a large (600gb, different file sizes from 100byte to 10gb) copy job tonight from my local drive to a 16TB NAS.
As I returned this morning teracopy got stuck at 90gb, the current copy speed still showed 25mb/s but there was no copying anymore. It stopped while copying a really small 500 byte textfile.
I tried to get this instance of teracopy to start copying again by pausing, unpausing or canceling and then clicking on copy again, but there was no way to restart the copy operation. I had to close TC and start the process again. And now (after some hours) it stopped again.
Seems the bug is still not fixed ;(
Running Windows 7 64bit TeraCopy is about 2 times slower than windows integrated copy. From disc to disc with TeraCopy I get about 35 MB/s, with windows I get about 90 MB/s. 🙁 🙁
@Dan
Thanks dude.
For some reason I didn’t even think to take a look in the .reg.
Works perfectly for 2.09 now.
To avoid false positives, use the following scanners before uploading:
http://www.virscan.org/
http://www.virustotal.com/
http://virusscan.jotti.org/
This gives the AV vendors a chance to look at the file if they are detecting false positives. Hopefully by the time users download the file, the false positives have already been fixed.
HTH for future releases 😉 Keep up the good work!
what’s the difference between the free and the pro version?
Kus emak!
Hey this realy good program i want translate my language.. But no have lang files .. i want translate turkish..
.sfv files are used to check the integrity of a file or files. You can create .sfv’s with a program like QuickSFV (www.quicksfv.org). I have seen these used most often while transferring large or numerous files over the internet. You create the .sfv on one PC, then check the .sfv on the pc you transfer the data to, to check if the file got there 100% error free.

Nod32 is flag this software as a virus as well. I tired to download it from download.com and directly from codesector.com and I got the same result. It says it’s a variant of win32/Statik
My ESET Smart Security v4 (nod32v4 with firewall, etc.), fully updated, detected no such virus in the file.

That is so odd, I’m running Eset Nod 32 version 4 and it’s fully updated as well and every time I tired to download this software it was flagged as a virus. See the screen print. http://www.flickr.com/photos/markanelson/4045482037/sizes/l/
Wow you are seeing transfer rates of 90MB/s… That’s amazing. What kind of setup are you running?
I’m ready to do the norwegian translation!
I’m ready to do the turkish translation 🙂 …
Hi
I have a dual monitor system, if I put Teracopy on the second monitor (which is to the left of my primary), and hit ‘More’ or ‘Less’ it toggles back to the first monitor.
Any chance it could be fixed to stay on the current screen, not a biggie as I have an app that will toggle the app a window is on by Win-Numpad5, but still a minor annoyance.
Thanks
And that’s with 2.07b
@Martin
Just add “C:\Program FIles\TeraCopy” folder to the exclusion list in AVG, problem solved.
in ver 2.07 / 2.0:
Not sure if it’s a bug in TeraCopy or Directory Opus, but in DOpus (ver 9.5 / 9.1.1.5) if I map a key (F5) to use Tera Copy to copy between panes and I copy to a destination that I don’t have access to (only read access), TeraCopy will look like it’s copying to that folder (progress bar goes up and file names change – as if really copying – which it isn’t) and then at the end it will say “x files were not copied” and show status of “Target: The system cannot find the path specified”.
NB: The progress bar that increases is a tan colour, not the normal blue progress bar.
The same will happen if I use the icon I created in DOpus for TeraCopy, or right-drag and drop and choose “TeraCopy here”.
Could TeraCopy perhaps, at the start, rather check if I have write-access before it starts “copying”? Also the status message doesn’t make sense.
Code I use in DOpus (used by the icon) to perform the copy
%ProgramFiles%\TeraCopy\TeraCopy.exe Copy *{allfilepath|filem} {destpath}
No real lockups anymore.. Major slowdowns still.. My network just aint that reliable anymore..
As for the installer.. Microsoft Security Essentials says its clean..
it’s clean on latest kaspersky internet security 2010 with win7 ultimate x64 build. thanks!
What is the diff between this one and the pro?
Hello Jeff,
Thanks for the fine tool. I’ve moved from XP along with your utility and I’m now using Windows 7 Ultimate x64 with this version of teracopy (2.07) and I can’t get rid of the UAC popups every time I copy, cut or move a file. I’ve tried the Compatibility toolkit several times, but UAC would ignore it. I can’t go through the 2nd workaround as I’m using 7, not Vista. Could you please look again into the problem? Maybe, “digitally signing” with Microsoft would get rid of the popups at lower security levels? Thanks in advance.
Hi,
is it possible to tell teracopy in command line mode that it doesn´t “stand stilL” if there are no files to copy ? For example: i use teracopy for backup directories. it could be possible that there are no files in some directories. when teracopy starts and find no files to copy it stops even if /Close parameter is set.
Sorry for my bad english.
Greetings Beelzebub
After upgrading from Teracopy 2.0 beta4 to 2.07 beta, noticed very slow network transfers. Previously was in the range of 20MB/s (Megabyte/sec) but now it ranges from 5-6MB/s.
Hardware :
1. PC1 = WinXP SP3, Realtek GigE NIC, Gigabyte P965-DS3 mobo
2. PC2 = WinXP SP3, Realtek GigE NIC, Intel DG31 mobo
3. Network switch = Dlink 16-port gig switch
4. Cabling = CAT6
How do we adjust the buffer size in the later Teracopy versions? No more options.ini ?
@moi
Same thing here, used to be 18-21, now 2.5-5 windows copy gets back up to 20 on the same file and destination.

I’m a registered owner of TeraCopy Pro.
Testing 2.07 beta on Win XP Pro 32-bit with latest updates; NTFS disks, Intel quad CPU, 4GB RAM…
Moving files between two internal 1TB drives. The problem of freezing during Move operations may have been lessened but it is still crippling. When TC hits a really big file (4GB) it seems incapable of calculating the source CRC to compare it to the destination (which it tries to do before deleting the source). According to Sysinternals “Filemon” util, TC keeps reading the source file but it never makes any progress. The same can happen on smaller files eg 700MB. I just left TC trying to do this for 15 hrs with no progress.
When I checked the CRCs with another app, it showed that the files had in fact been copied fine – but TC couldn’t verify it.
I hope you will fix this since TC is overall the best copy program (that’s why I bought it).
Addendum to my post five minutes ago: I don’t see the same problem on Copy, only on Move. That may help narrow down the cause. And it means that a workaround is to Copy (with Test) and then manually delete.
I suggest you change “Test” to “Verify” since that’t the standard terminology.
McAffee Virus Scanner deletes v2.07 beta, but had no problem with other recent versions.

A Western Digital Raptor RAID-0 and a Seagate Barracuda 7200.11.
Is there some option to stop TC2 putting up two instances? I liked the single instance queuing of 1.22, but with all versions of 2.0 if I start one copy or move operation, and do another one, it opens a second window, and any third and subsequent copy/moves get queued into the second window, until the first window is complete and closes, then it starts a second instance *again*.
(Using WinXPSP3 32bit)
@Hyram H.
When I set up a queue of (usually ‘copy’ actions) sometimes they get queued within one instance of TC and sometimes another second instance is started. Using TC2 and cannot see why one things happens over another. (Using WinXPSP3 32 bit too).

good, tool used for > a year but recently corrupted my hard drive!!! Two partitions were deleted in the process and the recovery doesn’t seem to be possible :(((
I was having a freezing issue with 2.01 but I installe the 2.07 beta and it has fixed the issue.
I obtained Terra-Copy to duplicate logical drives on another
hard disk. Each logical disk that I need to copy is about
30 Gigabytes. I was going to use XCOPY because the regular
windows explorer would bomb out when trying to copy that
much data in a drag and drop technique but here I am reading
terracopy may not be such a good idea for this mission. Can anyone
recommend the best way to copy an entire 30 GB logical drive to another
hard disk ?
@Scott Perkins
I use Tera Copy to move 50GB from partitiion to another partition.
Sometime it hang but I press Skip and move only this file again later.
75% of the times i’ve tried to copy big files (6-8 gigabytes) with testing from my harddrive to external hard drive (usb) i’ve got crc error.
last time i’ve check with an external md5sum software and the files were the same! you should check your testing feature.
When copying files from my desktop that I’ve downloaded for example graphics/sound drivers & game patches etc. to my external drive. I’m consistently getting failures ie. some of these files won’t copy over with “target access denied”.
I’ve checked the files & they’re not locked – if I untick the option to make teracopy the default copy handler & copy through windows, they ALL transfer without any problems!
I’m using teracopy PRO 2.07 beta.
Running vista business 32bit
I am using Teracopy Pro 2.07 beta. The software when it copies data is still running in memory when it finishes copying. I know because when I am deleting data after copying, it says that I can’t because a process is using it. It seems like a bug to me.
Hi!
Teracopy2.07 is the most interesting program in each PC.Especially for those who copy from time to time.
thanks a lot to those who work in this company.
Hello,
TeraCopy Pro doesnt save the position on my multimonitor setup.
My second monitor stands on the left side from the primary monitor.
Win7 x64.. any tip?
I am sorry to say:
Nice to have, not more.
The tool is NOT secure!
I lost data on moves, source deleted, destination not existent!
Not acceptable as embedded feature!
I am really very upset!
@Torus
Sorry, maybe I was subject to a very very delayed explorer update (which might be an error of the tool, nevertheless).
I don’t want to disqualify the tool, as I use it a lot but have had “effects” time and again. Maybe always my fault, but I’m a pro.
Nevertheless I like it, I am confused.
Use carefully with sensible data!
@Torus
Use it for copy, delete manually, no move.
I used Teracopy since version 1.2, but every time 2.xx versions perform worse and more bugs (they stop when they find files larger than 4 GB in NTFS), but the other day ruling the “2.07 beta” in the copy of a disk of 110 GB and damage all data leaving the album died. It took two weeks to recover them using specialized tools.
So I stopped using Teracopy to settle it, because it is more severe muco the rest of the bugs it has.
The show’s creator must realize, that above the interface is nicer or files are copied faster, more important in this type of program is that will not damage the data, because its purpose is to save them.
THIS IS FADU SOFTWARE …………I LOVE I U
Kaspersky is a;so now reporting Teracopy has having behaviour similar to PDM Keylogger, love the software though what’s causing this?

You asked which build of Windows 7 hangs. I get failure mid-copy on large (10s to hundreds of gigs) jobs. I’m using Windows 7 Enterprise 7600, 90 day eval. I also still see this on Windows Home Server (based on Server 2003).
Also, I am sometimes unable to cancel out and restart the copy — I have to resort to Task Mangler. 2.07b registered.
i’m using Windows 7 Ultimate RTM x64, and TeraCopy Pro 2.07b works great! (It did freeze on one transfer, though, but that was because i forgot to turn off standby in win7, and it went into standby).
I even backed up 1.5TB of stuff to my new HDD in one transfer with it.
I did have issues with Win7 Beta, but i think the RTM fixed it
The 2.07 works better. Thank you!
I´m new to TeraCopy and and find it very helpful for building up a repository (about some 10.000 files with a total of 100 GB). To be frankly, doing this I don´t trust ANY program as mighty as TeraCopy =;)
Some notes:
1) In the beginning it has been unclear to me how some of the commands work. E.g. I didn´t expect that the program can continue automatically and doesn´t wait for input if ´Always ask´ is set. Another thing is that ´Clean up´ doesn´t simply clear the file table.
2)The reports are sometimes not complete or CRCs are missing or they can not be loaded in TeraCopy — ARGH! For safety reasons I look up ´Transfer.log´ (easiest is with a link on desktop next to the TeraCopy icon) and sometimes make a file/size comparison of diectories with ´TreeSize Free´ (https://www.jam-software.de/freeware/). It would be helpful if something like a message saying ´YES, xxx files with xxx MB were copied from … to … …´ could be invoked easily.
This said: I really love TeraCopy! It´s helpful, fast and I expect it to become a very productive tool.
Thank you so much and all the best

Big Problem with Iolo System Shield! (Part of System Mechanic Pro) –
The antivirus part of SysMechPro COMPLETELY blocks all parts of Teracopy.
Normal copy operations do nothing at all, no window no error message, absolutely NOTHING! (Not even a logged message in SMC!)
Trying to run the Executable for teracopy results in
“Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file.
You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.”
Even running as Administrator makes no difference.
This is a pity, as I found teracopy very reasonable with WinXP.
Obviously, the developer needs to talk to Iolo to find out exactly what is being blocked and find a work around.
I Can’t do without antivirus, so teracopy has to go, sorry!
I have reported the problem with System Shield to Iolo, but who knows if they will take any responsibility for it?
Just use FastCopy, its free AND it wont corrupt your data like TeraCopy does. TeraCopy has been crap since v1.x, v2.X so far keeps creating more issues…
I have NO faith in it copying large sessions of data, i often copy entire drives around 320Gb and TeraCopy fails in better than 95% of cases. FastCopy has NEVER given me a problem….
@RANA HAMID
Fck off with your spamming
Hi Jeff.
Thanks, 2.07beta fixed a lot of the issues I was having. The program still fails if it’s been in a “waiting” state for a certain amount of time, though.

Are we going to get a XMAS pressie of a new version (beta or otherwise) from Jeff?
Found a very “special” behavior of 2.01 and 2.07 beta when used for copying large files (4 GB) under XP SP3 from a local very high speed SSD in a DELL Precision M4400 to a THECUS N7700 PRO NAS:
1. When Firefox is not running the same time:
Copy of a 4 GB file from C:\ to NAS iSCSI -> app. 40 MB/s
Copy of a 4 GB file from C:\ to NAS SMB/CIFS -> app. 55 MB/s
2. When Firefox is running the same time with http://www.n-tv.de in a tab:
Copy of a 4 GB file from C:\ to NAS iSCSI -> app. 60 MB/s
Copy of a 4 GB file from C:\ to NAS SMB/CIFS -> app. 75 MB/s
First I couldn’t believe TeraCopy’s behavior. But then I verified situation 20 times…
In the Task Manger it can be seen that TeraCopy use much more CPU% in case 2..
A solution of this problem should make sense. It can also be seen when certain other programms a running: E.g. EDIUS.
Locks up for me when copying 7 files over 1 gig each.
All on the same drive.
Copies about 10meg and then locks up the computer.. XPpro SP3.
I had to reboot (power button on for 4secs) to get it to respond.
When it does copy – smaller files it is very slow to load up before starting to copy. TC 2.07.
Keep trying,
Greg.

Not a big deal, but the Inno Setup option to change the Start Menu group (/GROUP=””) no longer functions. It worked fine in v1.22 but is now broken.
more abandonware? how about opensourcing it…
@Harald
I read an article about USB3 an problems with the powersaving function of modern CPU. When CPU was unter 100% load (not in reduced speed step) copying to /from USB3 drive was faster then without CPU-Load. Switch of powersaving CPU modes in BIOS and test again.
@sparky: 2 months of no beta updates and you call it abandonware? WTF?
More like 6 ‘updates’ in a year with at least two of those updates introducing serious bugs.
As I’ve noted before Teracopy is much better @ 2.07 then previous versions… Still the occasional lockup but my computer is under such immense load I don’t know who to blame lol.. Anyways.. Hoping Teracopy 2 will move out of beta soon!..
@Yatti420
Just caught up on the comments.. Can confirm a slow network transfer (7 \ 32bit here) wired or wireless.. Sometimes when fileserver is sleeping etc teracopy will fail to transfer or cancel.. Teracopy seems slow to initialize.. Hoping for big improvements next version and to leave beta lol!..
To All Users Who Think TeraCopy is a virus..
My suggestion is you uninstall your cruddy commercial anti-virus suites and get Microsoft Security Essentials.. Top notch product from Microsoft which is updated way faster then your commercial suites anyways.
Please Let us to choose vista style or Clasic Style for Teracopy because I hate actual “Teracopy vista style”
Hi Jeff,
what happened to TeraCopy 2.08?
Where did all those feature request I submitted (and you confirmed as being on your “todo-list”) go?
Also, on Win 7 you copy ACLs with the folder (i.e. copying FOOBAR from my desktop to C:\Program Files means it’s a writable directory, because it doesn’t inherit Program Files’ ACLs.. 🙁
Additionally, I found a strange bug: if files cannot be overwritten because they’re opened by some 3rd-party application, TeraCopy says “CRC mismatch” instead of “Damn, that file is write-protected! Maybe it’s opened by 3rd-party stuff?”
Please don’t let us (paying) users down and keep a) requested features coming and b) fix bugs like the one I mentioned above!
Thanks and Merry Christmas,
Martin
I love tgis app … use it regularly for copying files on remote computers. The ability to resume after a system hang is great. Please consider adding a log file that would enable you to reconnect incomplete sessions after a system hang or crash. That would be a great help
@ Jeff – Can we get any insite from you on how development is progressing? Anything at all?
hi, not ttryed 2.07… last 2.06b was bad(stps copying when copying a lot of files. iv gone back to 1.22 pro(reg version) which you cant download.
its been a year. i was happy to buy the program.. but you should put more time into it.. and release final version.. (working).
1. why i baught 1.22 pro.
a) fast copying.
b) tags more files on same list.
c) can pause)
new feature i like.
e) still tages on files on same list.. creats new copy window, if files afre from diff hdd (source + destination)
f) can verfy
g) can edit list
h) checks for space..dest.
keep up the good work.
as a x programmer (+ qul tech), fix xp bugs, then vista bugs, then win 7, dont add new features. if you have not fix existing problems..
p.s. MERRY XMASS + HAY NEW YEAR 2010,

Please continue on the page for Teracopy 2.1 version.
can teracopy or other Apps (perhaps teramerge!)do this:
by right click merge contents of multiple folders(more than 2) in single folder which its new name will be foldername1&foldername2&…
and for files by identical name ask to: replace, replace all, rename, rename all?
