Copy files to multiple folders at once

By default, Copywhiz will copy files to 5 destinations “simultaneously”. If you want to copy them to up to 10 destinations, go to the ‘General’ tab of Copywhiz Preferences.

Select the number from the drop-down. Copywhiz will copy to up to 10 destinations. If the number of folders are more than 10, Copywhiz copies files sequentially (one destination folder after another).

Steps to copy files to multiple folders:

After you have selected files in Copywhiz, go to the destination folder in File Explorer (Windows Explorer), right-click inside the folder, and choose Copywhiz Paste Advanced.

The Copywhiz window will appear where you can add more destination folders (comma separated). The bottom area of the Copywhiz window allows you to add multiple destination folders.

You can click on the ‘Add’ button to add a folder, click on the pencil icon to easily add or edit multiple items or you can also drag and drop folders inside the bottom area.

  1. It’s not clear and nothing said a word about of implementation about copy simulatanously of same files from one source (one drive) to multiple targets (other drive). As a developer I would prefer to just only load once each source file into memory and write/copy it to the targets, because that will really save system resources.
    But if not so, than it’s just only a GUI and model (overlaying) trick for doing the same copy commands as windows OS can do (via explorer or cmd shell).
    Sadly not described here (bad marketing), so its hard to must try out, if performance is better or slower than windows Explorer copy.ing do multiple targets (by reading from a SSD). Sadly not found any comparisons about performance on this website.

    Thanks for your questions and for your feedback. Really appreciate it.

    Copywhiz runs multiple processes for each destination folder to speed up file copy. Since they are different processes, each of them read from the source file, separately.
