This was done in order for each of the copying methods. And lastly, copied that folder from my internal drive to external C. Then, I copied a 24 GB folder (3300 files, with an average size of about 8 MB) from external A to my internal drive, B. Then, I copied that file to another external hard drive, C. First, I copied a file of 4.4 GB from one external hard drive, A, to my internal one, B. For small tasks it will do just fine.In order to test fairly, I ran four distinct copy actions with each program and with the default Windows 7 copy function. It is easy to use but can take a little too much of your time in case you have to work with a lot of files. To sum it up, Auto File Copier is a lightweight application designed to make repetitive file copying tasks something to worry less about. Once a task is created you cannot further edit it, and the only way to do so is to get rid of it and start over. In addition, if you made a mistake you must create the process again.
Scheduled processes are shown in a list but info can be slightly hard to view because of the length of the tabs for each detail. You can only include a single file in each one. However, if you need to copy files in certain days only, you will have to create a task for each one, because there is no calendar to mark the exact dates.įurthermore, a different task must be created for every file you need to copy. You can choose the frequency of a process' execution from a drop-down tab in which includes weekdays. In case a task should start as soon as possible, you can keep a close eye on the time for precise synchronization, thanks to the clock in the main window.
The interface is pretty intuitive and has two fields to be completed, one with the source file and the other with the destination, as well as the option to set the time when tasks should be taken care of. The application only shows up in a small main window that includes all the necessary options for you to schedule tasks.
Luckily, applications such as Auto File Copier give you the possibility to concentrate on something else, while resting assured that certain files will automatically be copied whenever and wherever is required. Copying files from one place to another can take up a lot of your precious time, especially if this must be done repeatedly.
