GUI for Microsoft's robocopy, written in C++ with wxWidgets. Robocopy can speed up copying/syncing/moving by a lot over regular copy operations.
It's meant for people are not familiar or comfortable with the command line, and only exposes the most used functionality of robocopy to the UI.
- Intuitive UI: User-friendly interface for easy configuration of robocopy commands.
- Real-time Output Monitoring: Monitor the output of robocopy operations in real time.
- Customizable Options: Various flags and options to tailor robocopy operations to specific needs.
- Download the latest release.
- Launch
wxRobocopy.exe. - Select source and target folders.
- Configure any necessary options such as copy type, filters, flags, CPU threads, and logging preferences. The default options work just fine as well!
- Click on "Run Robocopy" to start the operation.
- Monitor progress in the output window.
- Windows operating system
- CMake 3.10 or higher
- wxWidgets library
- Git
To build wxRobocopy, follow these steps:
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/aashishvasu/wxRobocopy.git
cd wxRobocopy- Run the provided PowerShell script to build both x64 and Win32 versions:
./build_release.ps1After building, you can find the executables in the Binaries directory under x64 and Win32 folders.
- Navigate to the appropriate directory depending on your architecture (e.g.,
Binaries/x64/wxRobocopy). - Run
wxRobocopy.exe.
To package the application into zip files for distribution:
- Ensure you have built both x64 and Win32 versions as described above.
- Run the packaging script:
./package_release.ps1This will create zip files named like wxRobocopy-v1.0-x64.zip and wxRobocopy-v1.0-Win32.zip in the project root directory.
