Show log of contents after copying files

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.
