Description

Copy Handler is a free, open source tool for Microsoft Windows that allows you to manage different copy/move operations for files and folders.

You can use it on your own hard drive partition, other storage media (external hard drives, CD/DVD units, flash drives etc.). You can use this application on Windows XP and later. There are two versions available: the standard setup file (installer) for both 32-bit and 64-bit operating systems and also a portable one (archived in a ZIP file).

Copy Handler Features

  • full control over the copy/move process (you can use pause, resume, cancel, restart buttons)
  • huge amount of options (task queuing, file filters, shutdown after finishing copy process, auto resume, logging, different shell options, adjust buffer size on multiple levels for CD-ROM/HDD/network and so on)
  • one of the most customizable applications in this area: the options section has over 60 configuration options that can be customized for your needs
  • observe detailed information regarding the entire copy/move operation such as: estimated time left, progress, speed etc.

Copy Handler Review

Using the program

You don't need a tool like this to copy one small file from your hard drive to a flash drive. However, when you need to transfer a large number of files or folders a smart app like this will get the job done, regardless of how many or how large they are.

Complexity level

This is a suitable application for both beginners and advanced users. If all you want to do is to copy/move multiple files, don't change the program options. Just start using it and it will do its job.

Conclusion

I recommend this tool to anyone who needs to copy/move large files from one storage device to another and also as an excellent alternative to other similar software such as Teracopy, Supercopier and Ultracopier. Finally, don't forget that this is a free program.
