Most of us face the problem of large copy time faced while windows try to copy big files of GB sizes. Even with the fastest processors and high RAM, it takes few minutes to copy files of GB sizes. The delay is quite annoying too. So it will be good if there is any particular utility for speeding up this transfer. An application which can perform in a similar way as Download Accelerator Plus works for downloads. In this article we will look into such an application. The name of the application is TeraCopy.

TeraCopy is a program designed to enable the user to copy and move large files at the maximum possible speed available. Along with that it also provides various other features for supporting the file transfer. We can just take a look at the major applications of TeraCopy.

Faster copying of files.

TeraCopy uses dynamically adjusted buffers for copying files. This can effectively reduce the seek time. Also the asynchronous copy method can speed up the file transfer between two physical hard drives to a great extend.

Option to pause and resume file transfers

It is one of the exciting feature which the default windows application lacks. You can pause the copying whenever you want to let the processor do some more important task. The paused copying processes can be resumed at anytime with a single click.

Error Recovery

If any error occurs during copying, TeraCopy tries to resolve the error several times and in the worst case if no other solution is there it will just skip that particular file, rather than terminating the entire process.

List of file transfers

TeraCopy shows the user a list of attempted file transfers. Some of them may be failed and the others succeeded. Keeping track of this list is a good idea. In case of any errors you can select the files from the TeraCopy which are partially completed and recopy only the corrupted files again.

Shell Integration

Another cool feature is that TeraCopy can be well integrated with Windows such that it can replace the default copy and move functions in the explorer. So you can work with files in the usual way but with more speed.

Full Unicode Support

Full Unicode support is the another feature to be highlighted.
