Duncan,
The problem of copying large amount of files has been a problem with Windows
since I can remember. So, this is not really a problem with Windows 8. On
Windows 8's defense it does a lot better at handling the files while copying
them.

This is true, however, I have been using OPUS explorer replacement
since switching to Windows XP, and ever since, I have never had a
problem copying anything. In fact, I had completely forgotten that
there ever was a Windows copying problem.

Windows 8.1 does reintroduce the Start Button to show that they are listening
to the customer but crucially not the Start Menu.
In 8.1 there's an option to boot into the classic desktop with a Start Button.
But when you press that button it simply launches the Metro UI.
Methinks that's not

I keep telling people, don't use the right click - move. If it dies, you
in a world of hurt trying to figure what got moved. Only use the copy
and then delete after the copy is successful.

Well, I got burned once, way back when. The two step method just seems
like basic sound practice. But yes explorer's file handling has always
been buggy. :(

Also, when copying a large amount of data it is a good idea to break the copy
down into smaller amounts. What I mean by this is the number of files. This
was also true in earlier versions of Windows as well. I copy vast amounts of
data everyday so it's a little tip there :)

Is the problem in Windows the number of files or the size of the copy?
I regularly move: 30+ GB files with no problem. I also move 10s of
files each in the 2GB range, too.

Anthony,
I meant a large amount of files. In some cases we copy over 1 to 2 million

Another W8 glitch? Sheesh!
Read in the paper last weekend that MS will release 'something' called
Windows 8.1 this September. Don't know whether this is an
upgrade, a patch, or whatever. Article mentions many fixes from their
'complaints' mail. WUP?
Still no 'START button'
Well, points for style, it appears MS has tried to really improve this.
But, in copying over a large amount of files today, I realize this
thing can get VERY confused.. I get to the end of a 4Tb copy, and it
says your target already has 868 of these files.. Oh.. Hmm.
Interesting. So, I
