A Better Way To Copy Files [1]

Windows has never been particularly fast or flexible at copying files. Copying a large file from one drive to another, or even from one location to another on the same drive, is much slower than when performing the same operation from a command prompt. Even before the copy starts, Windows spends ages discovering and calculating how much data it needs to move.
