File Copy Retry for Copy Errors

Post by SLRist »

Where a file copy fails because 'The copy is not identical to the original.' it would be nice to have an option to automatically retry the copy operation 'x' number of times before failing. I've often had these errors when copying large files either via USB or over the LAN, and it's irritating to have to kick off the copy operation manually (perhaps several times) until they finally all copy correctly.

Which - if it eventually succeeded - would give us a reputation of slow copying, and give you no warning that there may be disk or network (etc) errors...

The developer's philosophy is that all copies should work - if any are found to give non-matching hash values, you should be warned.
