No, just the truth. Copying files using Explorer is a nonsensical method for
backing up a system. Backing up a system is exactly what the OP was looking
to do and that is made obvious by the fact that he wants to copy protected
system files. Why store copies of system files if not in an attempt to
create a usable backup that can be restored to a new partition and function?
ALL of the above was as clear as day is long to anyone with the ability to
read that very first post and the brains to think out what the idiot was
really about.
My, this thread is just PACKED full of idiots, isn't it? Did I deny the
truth of what you said? No, I just brought it into the context of this
mis-titled thread.

Who's dumber?
Thread title: "Cannot copy files in use?"
My contribution: CopySharp, an absolutely amazing program.
Someone will get this thread when they search for "copy file", or
something, and find a really easy solution.
You reply to my nice community contribution with, "Will NOT accomplish a
backup that can be restored to a new HD."
Very mean and, well, dumb.

Doesn't surprise me that you have to ask, being dumb as you are.

I've been asking this question a lot lately but no one answers me, maybe
you will, Gary.
How is it possible to be so dumb?

I tried to do a drag and drop back up but it aborted as it
said some files were being used.
How can I get round this?
Boot up in safe mode?
