I too had issues with robocopy and now everything works really fine. Thanks to you guys and the admin of this website. These Indian guys nailed it, I tried GS Richcopy 360 and it really helped me a lot.

Note: I didn't use the command line functions of RichCopy, only the GUI. If this bug would be solved in Richcopy, it would be a worthy successor of Robocopy. If Richcopy would not have crashed every time the path of the file to copy became too long, it would have been the perfect solution for my case.
+++ Better documentation, more examples online +++ Automatically applies destination folder permissions (heritage) Crashes when trying to copy long file path So to summarize this transfer, both tools have strong pros and cons: Once everything was copied, I had to redo all the permissions-heritage on the destination folder, as all NTFS permissions were taken 1:1 from the source (this might be good in some scenarios, but that wasn't what I needed). But again, one file at a time, which made it much slower. I was forced to use Robocopy again, which had no problems whatsoever with long file names or file paths and everything was copied. I retried the same copy process and Richcopy crashed again. The lucky moments were short: After a few subfolders (with so many subfolders that the UNC path is too long) Richcopy started to have problems and crashed. That's exactly what I needed in this file transfer scenario. Another nice improvement is the fact, that now the copied folders and files take heritage of the destination folder. That's a big improvement over Robocopy! With this multi-threaded copy, it didn't only seem faster to my eye, but was in fact much faster. As soon as I started the copy process, Richcopy accessed several files at the same time (see screenshot above).
