Configuration - Operation - Copy/Delete - Copy method

[rsbrux]

Because of copy problems from an external USB drive and also to tsclient in RDP sessions I have changed my copy method from "Use standard copy method (recommended)" to "Use default method only (reliable, not very fast)". However I am curious about the alternatives. "Use copy + paste via Explorer (only in case of copy problems)" seems self-explanatory, but I have found "default method" recommended online, specifically for the tsclient problem. Would "via Explorer" be better than "default method" in case of copy problems? Does it depend on the kind of copy problems? For "Use compatibility mode" I didn't find any information at all. What is "compatibility mode" and when should it be used? Any explanation of the differences between the various copy methods would be appreciated!

"Use standard copy method (recommended)" uses the Windows function CopyFileEx
"Use default mod only" uses CreateFile and then a loop of ReadFile and WriteFile with a relatively small buffer (you can set it yourself).
"Also use big file copy mode" uses the same as "Use default mod only" but with larger buffers, and bypasses the write cache.
"Use compatibility mode" uses again CopyFileEx for the drives you enter there.
