If you are worried about speed involved in copying large files, use robocopy
from command line. It has advanced capabilities like copying from last
failed point, directory mirroring etc to name a few.

Hi,

Sometimes disabling the "Remote Differential Compression" and "Receive
Window Auto-Tuning " helps.

Hi,

I am new to Vista.
I have heard copying big files between network can be very slow in Windows
and also there is a solution to this. Can anyone tell me about that?

Regards,
Stanley
