    Best Open Source App to Queue Copy folders


    Hi All,
    What is the easiest to use Win10 app for copying a lot of folders to various other target folders in an automatic way without I having to babysit the copy process? In short, I just want to be able to queue up all of the correct target folders I want the data copied to so I do not manually have to do it myself by dragging folders around from disk to disk. In other words, I'm seeking for the copying to automatically run sequentially as prescribed in the queue list.

    I have tried Total Commander and it does not seem to offer such a functionality. If anybody knows of a good open source app that can perform this task please post a link to it. Thank you for your time.

    Various of these appear to allow you to add source folders to a GUI list - Teracopy (free for personal use) is well known, and e.g. Super Copier looks to be another:

    Something like this with Robocopy is possible:

    Dalchina,
    Thank you for the post. I installed Teracopy. It allows you to setup copy tasks as separate files. However, it wants you to click on a NEXT button to move on to the next copy task. Does anybody in the community know how to make Teracopy perform several copy operations without stopping and asking I press a NEXT button?

    Additionally, does anybody in this community know of any copy folder manager app that runs unattended? Any opinions welcome.

    Hi, I set up a simple trial to copy 3 files to a folder - I arbitrarily chose the older version 2.3 I think.

    Here you can see the 3 files and the destination folder and the result of copying.

    No prompts between files.
