   Used this on dozens of machines and never had a stability issue. My friends (who are in the same line of work) have used this on dozens of machines and never had a stability issue.
   
   Not saying stability issues don't exist for this software, just that they seem to be less than common.
   
   The TeraCopy bugtracker list appears relatively normal and is certainly no worse than most other active projects. It does kinda suck that the author doesn't offer or even link to any official support forums, though. These days, not having an open support forum is inexcusable for software you're trying to charge for.
   
   But now we're talking about service rather than the software itself, which is very good for transferring large files in Windows.
   
   If you're just gonna be transferring a bunch of small files like thumbnails, text files, Office documents, etc., then don't bother. Windows Explorer will probably do it faster and the pause/resume feature isn't so useful.
   
   If you're transferring multi-gigabyte files or file sets, if you want to be able to resume transfers if they're interrupted, if you want to be able to pause transfers, if you want to do automatic checksums, and if you want to do these things fast, then use TeraCopy.
   
   If you want to be able to manage your transfer queue (among other more advanced features), then you should buy TeraCopy and then get on their butts about offering a support forum.
   
   Yes, there are a couple of free alternatives out there, but as I mention below: they are both slower and have been completely abandoned by their development teams years ago.

   And I'm sure you think that your post, darthbeads, is the epitome of maturity. That's the ironic thing.

   On the plus side, the developer is considerably more mature than the blowhards posting below....

   What shall a person do with crackbrained blobs such as tylerhw? Well, friend, TeraCopy has freeware AND shareware variants, so it's not simply "freeware". And if you had bothered to visit http://bugs.codesector.com, you would have seen that PLENTY of other people have experienced issues with TeraCopy.
   
   But, of course, it's easier to be an internet tough guy than it is to know what you're talking about. I have in-laws. I know all about cretinous blowhards. I've gained nothing from our little exchange.

   Integration with Total Crapmander? Not that that's any sort of plus or care-factor thing at all. What is, though, is the fact that this is actually a great program in it's own right - and still free.
