How can I use SuperCopier with XYplorer?

Post by lvhoang1 »

HI Guys,

So the title says it all,

Ive read a lot of threads with Teracopier, etc etc.... but was not able to find anything with SUpercopier?

Hoping you can help me with this, Im sure im not the only one wondering :)

PS: I use the old version SuperCOpier 3.2 because the new one from Ultracopier has a CGminer....

Cheers!

Hi,

if I recall correctly Supercopier has no command line support. Therefore it cannot work.

Found this:

Haven't tried it though, there seems to be portable version here:

Btw, I use teracopy myself.

Hi guys,

Sorry to dig up this post, but since I was hoping it's now possible to "integrate" latest version which is Ultracopier...

Every week I move, transfer, copy folders with my movies and music from one location to another and I like the features to group all in one window.

Thanks in advance.

Does it have command line support?

PS: Okay, it has:

So it would be possible. But sorry, no priority. Too many other things on my list...

What could be more important for a file manager than copying files? I've tested it and the results are pretty impressive (copying 40k files from one drive to another, TeraCopy - 24s, Ultracopier - 16s).

Well, it does. This question was about using another copier.

If I understand correctly, the question was about integrating support for Ultracopier as another external copy handler, which I’m interested in due to it’s performance.

To be clear, I'd rather prefer not to use external anything, but
a) the native XYPlorer's copier is even slower than Explorer which is slower than TeraCopy which is slower than Ultracopier
b) XYPlorer already has an amazing feature to use external copiers
So why don't just update this feature for modern copy engine until you can implement fast native copier? I believe this is much simpler.
And btw, is it possible to generalize this feature so one can use any external copier? Or just bypass it to Explorer which could bypass it to whatever copy replacer is activating at the moment?

a) How much slower is XY, do you have numbers?

b) No, it's not possible to generalize it ATM.

Here is the new test on a larger data set so that we could clearer see the difference.
Copying 7,34GB, 88 638 Files, 18 102 Folders from NVME SSD to RAM Disk, 2m between runs

Explorer 1m29s 1m28s
XYPlorer 1m41s 1m40s
TeraCopy 0m48s 0m48s
UltraCopies 1m17s 1m16s

Unexpected results tbh, on a larger data set TeraCopy appears to be faster...
My apologize for wasting your time, I should've tested it more carefully.

XY is not that bad IMO. Remember that it gives you something in return for your time, e.g. full Undo/Redo and a full report...

Continuing the drama, TeraCopy appears to be ridiculously slow for bigger files. It seems to be capped to ~550 MB/s for some reason. For instance, the copying of 7 files (1GB each) takes 13s while with any other method it takes 3s.
