copy file limit?

[Alpengreis]

Hello

Has the TC copy command a file limit? I read about the xcopy command (cmd) which has a limit of about 10'000 - 30'000 files and have a problem with more to put the file list in memory and the copying process is then incomplete (or something like that).

Has the TC copy command (with TC v31.x) also such a limit (don't know the API function) - and if, how is this limit (on FAT resp. NTFS) with Windows 10?

I ask that related to the 1-way-sync of copy (switch /W) and generally too.

Greetings

There is no inherent limit with the COPY command. If you use the /O;xx option to copy in a specific order, you will be limited by the amount of virtual memory in the system. So in that case you might be limited to a few million files.
