TeraCopy shows failed file transfers and lets you fix the problem and recopy only problem files. In case of a copy error, TeraCopy will try several times and in the worse case just skips the file, not terminating the entire transfer. Pause the copy process at any time to free up system resources and continue with a single click. Asynchronous copy speeds up file transfer between two physical hard drives.

TeraCopy uses dynamically adjusted buffers to reduce seek times. Seamless integration with Windows Explorer allows you to keep working with files as usual. TeraCopy will calculate files CRC checksum on the fly to speed up source and target file comparison. TeraCopy skips bad files during copy and even shows the skipped files at the end of the file transfer. TeraCopy is free for "home users".It’s a utility designed to copy/move files faster and more securely. But even without these Pro features, TeraCopy is a handy tool that speeds up the copy process and solves other Windows Explorer annoyances. You also get free updates and priority support. The Pro version of TeraCopy has additional features, such as favorites folders, and it allows the editing of the file list during a copy job. If you don’t like it, the tool also can undo the registration. If you want to make TeraCopy your default copy tool, you can register a “Copy Handler.” You can enable this feature easily in the Preferences menu. As you can see in the following screenshot, it has shortcuts for copying, moving, testing, and permanently deleting files. The tool neatly integrates in the Explorer menu and offers its services right where you need them. Last but not least, if a copy job can’t finish (for example, due to a failed network connection), you can resume the job after the network connection is up again. If you want to verify that the copied files exactly match the source files, you can have TeraCopy compare the checksums. A detailed file list in the TeraCopy window informs you of the status of every copied file. If this still doesn’t solve the issue, TeraCopy just continues with the next file. If TeraCopy encounters a problem during the copy process, it retries the copy a few times.

Copies to a network share are not speedier at all because network bandwidth is a limiting factor on modern hardware.

The speed increase is only significant on locally attached disks, though. Depending on your OS, file transfers between hard disks are up to 40% faster when using TeraCopy.
