Some of the advantages of this software: copying data at rates up to 6-7 times faster than standard MS Windows copying (when copying data from one partition to another on the same physical hard disk) allow full control over the copying/moving process by a pause, resume, restart and cancel features; multiple languages support and more may appear, and since the translation process is quite easy. It is fast and easy software for copy/move files and folders between different storage media.
How to Copy or Move Files with Drag and Drop
One of the most common methods to copy or move a file or folder is to drag and drop it into the destination folder. By default—depending on the location of the destination folder—File Explorer might move it instead of copying it, or vice versa. However, there’s a hidden method that overrides Windows’ default behavior. Open File Explorer by pressing Windows + E and navigate to the file you want to copy.
Windows has two default actions when you drag and drop a file or folder into a new destination: copy or move. Copying happens when you drop the file or folder into a directory on a different drive. Moving occurs when you drop it on the same drive, as we’ll do below. However, there’s a hidden trick that forces Windows to perform a specific action.
To copy files over to a different drive, highlight the file(s) you want to copy, click and drag them over to the second window, and then drop them.
Copy Handler Features

- Multi-language support – full support for English and Polish, partial support for more languages courtesy of our users.
- It detailed statistics about copy/move operation (current file, buffer sizes, priority, progress by size, count and overall, status, current and average speed, the time elapsed, estimated, left, and many more).
- This software automatically resumes all unfinished operations after the system restart.
- The queue support – runs one or more operations simultaneously in a specific order.
- This software integration with Windows Explorer – adds additional commands to context menus of folders and drag & drop menus.
