File Name: TeraCopy
File Submitter: Aeolis
File Submitted: 09 Feb 2013
File Updated: 17 Feb 2013
File Category: App scripts

CREDITS: I have based my work on the original TeraCopy script made by DarkPhoeniX, so my BIG THANK YOU for DarkPhoeniX!

DESCRIPTION: This is a TeraCopy script that gives user the ability to use it inside a PE build. It has some features to help the integration and customization, like adding shortcuts, shell integration, drag and drop integration and disable integration when scroll lock is ON. There is also the possibility to customize colors and other options. This script comes with instructions on how to do that.

THE PROGRAM: TeraCopy is a free utility designed to copy/move files faster and more secure. TeraCopy can resume broken file transfers. TeraCopy skips bad files during copy and even shows the skipped files at the end of files transfer. Calculates files CRC checksum on the fly to speed up source and target files comparison. Seamless integration with Windows Explorer allows you to keep working with files as usual.

NOTE: Due to "How to determine if a file is redistributable" (link: http://reboot.pro/3251/) I will not be able to attach the TeraCopy files to this script and integrate its extraction. So, please, do not ask for this feature. You will have to download the files yourself.

FROM AUTHOR: I hope you like using it as much as I liked improving it. I hope you can test and post your comments here. I would like suggestions on how to clean/improve this script.

Best regards,

Aeolis

Well, NO.

Noone - with a very few exceptions - has ever considered the referenced thread as "binding" (and it wasn't actually - it was just an attempt to provide some common sense).
For the record that attempt has been widely regarded as irrlevant and blatantly ignored by - say - 4/5th of the .script developers.

So, you are doing IMHO the "right thing" (if Teracopy has a non-redistributable clause) BUT you are doing it on your free will, and NOT because that thread constitutes a "Rule" of some kind, and anyway also the actual Rules are ignored.

For users who use the script at several PCs in their network:
You can help them a bit, not to define the files path at every new PC:

Have a look of e.g. at FileMon, RegMon, ProcMon scripts in my multiPE project.
Here before the first use, you attach the necessary file(s) to the script.
Then you can use your script in every PC of your domain w/o redefining the path to the nondistributable script.

BTW: When you want to distribute your script, there is a way included in the above mentioned scripts to delete the 'nondistributables'.

Here is what the license.txt says:

RE-quoted since the CODE does not scroll to the right:

On second attempt, maybe I found the issue
When you click on the scroll-bar or on the right arrow button, nothing happens.
But if you double click on them the stupid CODE box seemingly "gets focus" and starts working (on next click).

[:ck!:]

currently the startmenu shortcut path/folder is not fully changeable, with script gui.
it allways adds "Teracopy" (%ProgramTitle%)

just change:

  If,%pCheckBox5%,Equal,True,Add_Shortcut,StartMenu,%DefaultGroupName%%ProgramTitle%

to:

  If,%pCheckBox5%,Equal,True,Add_Shortcut,StartMenu,%DefaultGroupName%

ExtremeCopy is faster and in my opinion a better copying program. They also have a free home use one. Check out the Video from this link for speed test against TeraCopy.

I was so impressed with the trial pro version, I bought it. I can copy 26 gig to a NTFS formatted USB Jump Drive in 32 min. With TeraCopy, it was like 1hour 5min. I like both and not knocking your work, Aeolis

[erwan.l]

similar "copy" tool : http://supercopier.sfxteam.org/ .

First thing I do everytime I get a new computer is to install this nice little freeware.
One thing I like : you can tune the bandwidth, useful for file copy over the WAN.

Will test this out. Thanks

Many said, RichCopy is the best, and the author finally get back to updating it. BUT, Robocopy is getting better too.

Any comprehensive comparison test report on most popular copiers - I mean independent? I think they all exploit or mimic Robocopy functionality though for reliability - like GUI addons.

Hi Aeolis,

here's a little suggestion:

How about implementing / adding a direct download of teracopy.exe combined with extraction through innounp (inno setup unpacker), so that the winbuilder script downloads and extracts always the latest version of teracopy. I would do it myself since it's not so hard to do I guess, but at the moment I do not have the time to do it

Thanks in advance,
Chefkeks

[paraglider]

Thats what I did ( + I attached latest copy of innounp to script ):

[Download]
If,ExistDir,%ScriptDir%Files,DirDelete,%ScriptDir%Files
DirMake,%ScriptDir%Files
WebGet,"http://www.codesecto...r%teracopy.exe"
ExtractAllFiles,"%ScriptFile%","Folder",%ScriptDir%
ShellExecute,Hide,%ScriptDir%innounp.exe,"-x -d%ScriptDir%Files -y %ScriptDir%teracopy.exe"
FileDelete,%ScriptDir%innounp.exe
FileDelete,%ScriptDir%teracopy.exe
ShellExecute,Open,%ScriptDir%Files{app}TeraCopy.exe

To [Interface] I added:

pButton2=Download,1,8,263,126,80,25,Download,0,False,False

To [Process] I added:

If,Not,ExistDir,%ScriptDir%Files{app},run,%ScriptFile%,Download
If,Not,ExistFile,%ScriptDir%Files{app}TeraCopy.exe,run,%ScriptFile%,Download
CopyProgram,%ScriptDir%Files{app}

i found a issue

Im busy upgrading to the win7pe_se project (from VistaPE)

i found that reg_add (API) dose not add changes to reg

so i want to convert reg_add to regwrite

 

Do you still have the 64.reg file ?

If,%pCheckBox3%,Equal,True,If,%SourceArch%,Equal,x64,Begin
Hive_Load,Machine
reg_add,0x1,%reg%\Classes\*\ShellEx\ContextMenuHandlers\TeraCopy,,"{A8005AF0-D6E8-48AF-8DFA-023B1CF660A7}".....ect

 

i do not have a 64bit win7.ISO so i cant capture it

@Aeolis

 

I like your script, i use TeraCopy 2.3 beta 2. I noticed, that the option "Shutdown when transfer is complete" doesn't work (see arrow)

 

 

 

A few lines additional code makes this function working (add the code direct after "CopyProgram,%pFileBox1%\Files\{app}")

Tested in x86 and x64 builds.

CopyProgram,%pFileBox1%\Files\{app}

Dear fuwi,

 

Thank you for your help. I will add your suggestion ASAP. Well, I do use another script from you - FastCopy. I would like to suggest to you that you add the option to have the explorer context menu options inside a sub menu. Look at the picture below:

 

 

Best regards,

Aeolis

 

P.S.: Did you test your code? Did it work as expected in x86 and x64 builds? Did it work for older versions than 2.3 beta 2?

Older versions do not have what fuwi patched

But it works on the new version

[Aeolis]

Hello folks,

 

@fuwi: Check the new version. I have updated the script with your idea, but changed the code a little bit. Thank you for the suggestion. Could you update the FastCopy script with the suggestion I gave you?

 

Best regards,

 

Aeolis

[fuwi]

@Aeolis

 

FastCopy script updated, thanks for the suggestion: http://www.mediafire...gyr851ra7kkdo81

 

I have checked the new version of TeraCopy (in x86-build Win7PESE and Win8PESE for now), "Shutdown when transfer is complete" is working now.

 

BTW: in Win7PESE when i start the TeraCopy GUI (version 2.3 beta 2) and click "Select target folder" then i get no browser window, the target ist always set to '\'

in Win8PESE it works correctly.

Hello folks,

 

@fuwi: I have noticed this behavior yesterday while testing the new feature on TeraCopy script. I will study the problem and try to fix it ASAP. Could you test if this problem is related to PE environment or is a TeraCopy 2.3 beta 2 bug? I mean, could you test TeraCopy 2.3 beta 2 in a installed Windows 7?

 

Thank you for the feature added to FastCopy script.

 

Best regards,

 

Aeolis

[fuwi]

I mean, could you test TeraCopy 2.3 beta 2 in a installed Windows 7?

TeraCopy 2.3 beta 2 installed on my office computer (Windows 7) hasn't this problem.

Hello folks,

 

@fuwi: I will need your help do find what is the problem with TeraCopy. I have tracked down some dependencies for TeraCopy and still no success. I could not figure out what is the exact cause of the problem, but I do think that it is a missing dependency problem. You said it work as expected on Win8PESE, could you provide me a list of .dll and .exe files inside your System32 and SysWOW64 (in case you build a 64-bit project)? Or provide me a detailed support log? Or both?

 

Best regards,

Aeolis

[fuwi]

@Aeolis

 

attached the lists of exe's and dll's in System32 of my (booted) Win8PESE x86
