ScheduledCopy

Writtenin Qt, ScheduledCopy is a lightweight application that enables you to schedule copy jobs to autorun without your intervention. It doesn't contain complicated options or configuration parameters, making it accessible to all types of users.

There is no setup pack involved, which makes ScheduledCopy portable. You can drop the program files anywhere on the hard disk or on a USB flash drive, and directly launch the app on any computer. An important aspect worth noting it that, unlike most installers, it doesn't modify Windows registry settings.

The interface is made from a large window split into two panes, where you can set up four separate tasks. For each job you can specify the source and output directory, time and date of execution, along with a post-task action.

For example, the tool can be instructed to exit or to turn off the computer. If it encounters files with existing names, it can overwrite them or rename the newer ones. Log details are recorded to file, so you can find out how the tasks were carried out after returning to the computer.

Lastly, you can allow the app to use force when attempting to start the copying operations, in case it comes across any issues. Scheduled jobs can be canceled anytime.

The software utility carried out file copy jobs rapidly in our tests, during which it remained light on system resources usage. As we expected, it had minimal impact on computer performance, running on low CPU and RAM.

To wrap it up, ScheduledCopy features approachable settings to help you easily schedule automatic copy jobs. However, it doesn't have more advanced options, such as file filters. Nevertheless, you can test the program for yourself, since it's free to use.
