Cons
Con In beta
Although mostly stable, such stability is not guaranteed, and support is only community driven. Caution advised.
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.
