Re: Prevent user from copy files to other drive

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Only by stopping them from having the ability to write to C at all. A copy
operation is a read (from source) and write (to target). You can only stop
someone copying files by denying read or write.

You can do this via a GPO. You can use a GPO to define file and folder
permissions. It's a computer setting.
