Specs
Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Faster file deletion
It deletes files much much faster than built in Windows file manager.
Pro Can check files for copy errors
TeraCopy can automatically check/verify the copied files for errors, by calculating their CRC or other checksum/hash value.
Pro Seamless shell integration
Pro Skips badly copied files
TeraCopy skips badly copied files during the copying process, and then displays them at the end of the transfer "Verify" with checksum/hash, so you can see which files to re-copy. See also, OpenHashTab for Windows and DeadHash for Windows, Linux, Android.
Pro Exceptionally fast for NTFS drives
Because it reads the master file table (MFT) directly from NTFS file system.
Pro Free
There is no limitation to using it.
Pro Multiple view such as tree view, tree map, extension view, file view
Unlike other similar apps, which usually only offer single view, this app offers multiple views.
Pro Handles "hard linked" files correctly - doesn't count them more than once
WizTree is faster and much more accurate than all the others as it properly handles hard linked files (doesn't count them more than once) so the total allocated size reported by WizTree will actually match the space used on the drive as reported by Windows.
Cons
Con Sometimes clashes with 7 zip
From my experience, TeraCopy does not do well in conjunction with 7zips.
It seems to error on some systems when you do a drag-and-drop extract.
Con Intended for NTFS only
It'll work with any other file system but with the same speed as any generic space analyzer.
