Optionally verify the operation and check the logs and reports tabs for any errors.<\/p>\n<p>CopyMastro will keep file attributes and will check\u00a0to only copy newer versions if that option is chosen. It can skip or copy hidden files and\u00a0link (shortcut)\u00a0files. By adding filters the copy operation can be filtered down to file types. It can also ignore nonessential files like\u00a0Desktop.ini.<\/p>\n<p>The program\u00a0also supports using command line programs like\u00a0Robocopy and rsync to do the heavy lifting. This can be set up in the program preferences. The user can save the to and from and other chosen options to a task file (File &#8212;&gt; Save task) for future\u00a0use but the program remembers last and recent operations.<\/p>\n<p>CopyMastro runs on Windows 7 and newer, OS X 10.8 and newer\u00a0and Linux 64bit and Raspberry systems with Qt5.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CopyMastro\u00a0(version: 2.0.7) is a cross platform Qt based backup program.
