Windows 11 23H2 vs Ultracopier

[Daijobou]

I gave it a try and was surprised. It is much slower than Windows 11 23H2. I copied a 1.4 GB folder (many photos) and was done with Windows more than twice as fast. Do I have to turn anything on or off for Ultracopier or does the current Windows version do something better?

To do a correct benchmark:
Do 2 copy for each tools, take time of second copy only.
You can try option into copy engine, performance section

Why is a double-copy a "correct" benchmark? Users have absolutely zero concern for a file copy app that is faster than Windows on the SECOND copy of the same files, right?? Why in the world would they copy the same files twice to get the 2nd copy to be the fastest?

HAVING SAID THAT: I question @Daijobou to verify that his file copy using Ultracopier was done with no form of validation that is slower than whatever Windows 11 23H2 File Explorer may be using. Without this check, you are comparing Apples to Oranges.

It's correct way because both copy is used with cache.
If you wish test without case you need HDD without flash cache and do cold reboot. It's harder to achieve correctly.
