Verify data integrity of files copied

Copywhiz lets you verify the data integrity of files copied. This is like a checksum feature that checks if all files were copied successfully without any data loss. This is necessary especially when copying files over network.

Here are the steps to follow:

Step 1: Open Advanced Settings

If you have selected files in Copywhiz using the File Explorer (Windows Explorer), then go to the destination folder. Right-click inside the folder, choose Copywhiz → Paste Advanced to open the Copywhiz window and click on the 'Advanced Settings' button as shown in the picture below.
