Copy large files over unreliable and slow network connections and devices.

Copy Large Files (CLF) allows you to copy files over unreliable and slow network connections and devices. It is particularly useful when copying files with Window Explorer fails due to the size of the file and instability of the network. CLF copies files up to 2 TB (Terabytes) in size (250 times as large as what a DVD can hold). CLF insures the copied file(s) are identical to the original. CLF is relentless in its attempts to copy your files, recover from errors, and automatically retries when necessary. CLF supports a resume feature and requires no intervention on your part to recover from problems. CLF also works great for over USB drive connections and other devices. CLF supports command line parameters for automation.
Sometimes copying files to network drives, especially large files, can work intermittently or Lock up your Windows Explorer. Typically, in a business environment, some network drives and directories can be located anywhere across the country and be on a slower (cheaper) type connection. Copying large files can be impossible or take multiple attempts because of network glitches that cancel the operation before the copy is finished. In these unstable environments corrupt files are commonly produced.
Copy Large Files overcomes all these problems. The files get there and are exactly the same as the original.
Copy Large Files is not a File Splitter.
