sorry for the title but have no idea how to say it shortly.

very often I need to copy a lot of files from different folders to the same destination. Till now I've been doing it by selecting these files (multiselect if in one folder) then copy then go to next folder - select - copy and so on.

Wouldn't be better to add these files first to some kind of temporary list (this way all files - even from different folders can be selected at once) and then copy?

or it is already implemented?

hope you guys can understand what I mean:)

You may try my Virtual Panel. It saves links to files when you copy files to it, and you can copy files from it to target folder at once.

If all target folders exist in the ame directory you can:
1. select all files in source panel (S),
2. select all target dirs in target panel (T).
3. activate S and hit F5
4. choose "Copy to all selected folders/links in target panel".

If folders reside in different locations you can:
1. assign some shortcut to cm_SaveSelection (saves selection temporarly)
2. use it before each copy together with cm_RestoreSelection (default NUM /) .

adom_sapek,
Open the Background Transfer Manager and pause it. Then copy files as usual, but instead of OK press F2 - Queue.
