Recreate empty folder structures from selected directories by skipping any containing files, and calculate directory size using this portable utility. #Copy directory #Calculate directory #Tree copy #Copy #Directory #Structure
TreeCopy clones directory structures and recreates them in another location on the hard disk while skipping any containing files. It comes in handy when you want to organize your files. The app doesn't require installation and contains basic options.
The interface is user-friendly, made from a single window which contains two panes for navigating disk locations and selecting the folder whose entire structure of subfolders you want to copy, along with the destination.
It doesn't matter whether or not the source directory contains files. Worth noting is that the program doesn't make any changes to them, but copies the empty tree view instead, so there's no risk of accidentally losing data.
The whole task is very fast, during which you can check out a progress bar. On completion, it reveals the total number of newly created subdirectories. Another noteworthy aspect is that TreeCopy doesn't actually copy the root folder, but only its subfolders.
Plus, the tool is capable of counting the subdirectories of a selected folder. You can refresh both trees at once, open the Windows Explorer context menu, trigger keyboard shortcuts, and run command-line parameters in a console window, where it's also possible to auto-create a log file with errors.
Tasks were carried out almost instantly throughout our evaluation, during which, unsurprisingly, the program remained light on system resources consumption. Although it hasn't been updated for a long while, it worked smoothly on newer Windows editions.
To wrap it up, TreeCopy offers a simple and straightforward solution for copying empty directory trees from one place to another, regardless of whether or not they contain files. It's lightweight, portable and can be handled by anyone with ease.
