Low resource consumption
Small program size
New in version 1.04:
Continue copying after stop not only from the same stage, but also from the same position in the file
Waiting for media ejected during copying
A small script that allows you to copy directories
The program does not use any low-level information reading methods, but it works very efficiently.

The program implements an interesting algorithm that divides the copying process into 4 stages: fast copying, detailing, fine detailing, copying bad sectors. The purpose of this separation is to copy as many good sectors as possible in as little time as possible, and at each stage to get an increasingly detailed picture of bad sectors.

Quick copy. Copies a file in fairly large blocks. By default, the size of this block is 1mb when copying from fast media (CD, HDD), and 64kb when copying from slow media (FDD). If there is a bad sector inside such a block, the entire block will be considered bad. As a result, groups of bad sectors are quickly skipped and an approximate picture of bad sections of the copied file is obtained.

Detailing. Each bad section copies sector by sector up to the first bad sector, first moving from the beginning of the bad section, then from its end. The result is a more accurate picture of bad sector groups at low cost.

Accurate detail. Tries to copy every sector in all bad areas. At the end of this stage, a real picture of bad sectors is obtained.

Copying bad sectors. Tries to copy every bad sector, while making several read attempts in a row. It is on this that the ability of the program to recover information from bad sectors is based, since in some cases there is a possibility that the sector will still be read.
The program can be configured to repeat the last step until the entire file has been successfully copied. That is why the program is called - Non-Stop Copy.

How to copy directories
▲
The Non-Stop Copy v1.04 distribution includes a batch file "nscopyd.bat". It allows you to copy, using NSCopy, the contents of one directory to another, including subdirectories.

Its use, I hope, will not cause great difficulties for anyone. However, anyway, I will describe how.
Let's say you need to copy the contents of the "E:\" drive to the "D:\Copy_E" directory.

1. Go to "Start"-"Run...". Click "Browse..." and point to "nscopyd.bat" .

2. Add to the end of the resulting line in the field "Open": "E:\" "D:\Copy_E\" .

Those. the result should be something like:
"C:\Program Files\NSCopy\nscopyd.bat" "E:\" "D:\Copy_E\"

3. Click "OK".

A few more comments.

The batch file only works under Windows NT/2K/XP and above.

Masks are not supported, moreover, they cannot be specified. Those. "E:\*.*" will result in an error. You can put a slash at the end, but you can not put it. Those. "D:\Copy_E" and "D:\Copy_E\" are the same. In any case, whatever you specify will be taken as the path. You cannot copy a single file using a batch file.

After the directories, you can specify additional keys with which NSCopy will be launched. For example, the "/u" switch (do not issue any messages that require user response) might be useful. You can find a list of all available command line options by running "nscopy.exe /?".

Directory attributes are not copied. Those. if the directory had the "hidden" attribute, then its copy will no longer have this attribute.

How to make a patch file even though the software can't create them

What do I mean by "patch file"? A patch file is a relatively small file that you can form from an entire copy of a file to repair the bad parts of a damaged NSCopy copy of the same file.

For example, you somewhere recorded a 650-meter film (film.avi) on a disk, brought it home, and the recording turned out to be slightly broken. With NSCopy you managed to copy everything but a measly 10 sectors. And I don't want to record the film again in order to finally convey it as a whole.

Then you can do the following:

1. Take a copy of the NSC file that resulted from copying the movie, bring it to where the whole copy of the movie is located (film.avi.nsc) and copy the NSC file, for example, to the directory "C: \Patch\". The result is the file "C:\Patch\film.avi.nsc".

2. Using NSCopy, start copying the entire copy of the movie to the "C:\Patch\" directory (i.e., for example, copy "D:\Video\film.avi" to "C:\Patch\film.avi"). The result is the file "C:\Patch\film.avi", which contains only the damaged parts, information about which was saved in the NSC file. And everything else inside the file is filled with null bytes.

3. The resulting file "C:\Patch\film.avi" must be archived by any archiver - they will all do a good job with a bunch of neley. With some archives, large files like movies are best archived twice (the same ZIP compressed itself again on a 650 MB file by about 33 times). As a result, we will get a rather small file, for example "film.zip". With a small number of bad sectors, its size will be only a few tens of kilobytes. Here is the patch file we need. We take this "film.zip" and take it home.

4. Unzip "film.avi" at home, for example, to "C:\Good\film.avi" and then copy using NSCopy from "C:\Good\film.avi" to your damaged copy of the movie.

5. Done. Your movie is now completely intact, and "C:\Good\film.avi" can be deleted.

Of course, I understand that this is inconvenient and long. But if you really need it, you can do it.

How to Integrate NSCopy into File Explorer (Add an Item to the Right-Click Menu)

All you need to do is add a shortcut to nscopy.exe to the SendTo menu directory. How to do it:
1. Open "My Computer" and go to the drive where your system is installed (most often it is the "C:" drive)

2. Next, go to the "Documents And Settings" folder, and then to the folder whose name is matches the username you are logged in with.

3. Next, in the line "Address:" write "SendTo" (without quotes) and press Enter. Perhaps you have the display of hidden folders turned on, or "SendTo" is not hidden for you, then you can enter it simply with the mouse.

4. Now in another window, open the folder containing "nscopy.exe" and make a shortcut to "nscopy.exe" in the "SendTo" folder. If anything, this is done by dragging "nscopy.exe" with the right mouse button to "SendTo" and then selecting "Create Shortcut".

5. Rename the shortcut to "Non-Stop Copy".

And that's all.

Now, if you need to copy a file using Non-Stop Copy, just right-click on it and select "Submit"-"Non-Stop Copy".
▲ 1. Double- click
the NSC file, and when a window appears to select which program to open the file with, select "nscopy.exe" while checking the box "Use this program for all files of this type".

2. Close the running "Non-Stop Copy".

3. In any Explorer window, select from the menu: "Tools"-"Folder Options ..." or go to "Start"-"Settings"-"Control Panel"-"Folder Options"

4. Click the "File Types" tab , in the "Registered file types" list, find the extension "NSC", select this list item and click the "Advanced" button.

5. In the window that opens, in the "Actions" list, select "open" and click the "Change..." button.

6. In the window that opens, in the field "Application that performs the action", add "/i" to the end of the line (without quotes). Those. there should be something similar to the following:
"C:\Program Files\NSCopy\NSCOPY.EXE" "%1" /i

7. Then click "OK" in all windows.
