CTRL-C & CTRL-V with external Tera Copy

#1 Post by pOpY » 27.10.2025, 15:54

Hey guys.

There where already multiple threads about this issue, see:

viewtopic.php?t=5135
viewtopic.php?t=5271

I have setup tera copy to hijack CTRL-C & CTRL-V in explorer and it works as it should.
Also in FC i have set it up like this in the settings:

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files\TeraCopy\TeraCopy.exe Copy *"%ActivSelAsFileUtf8%" "%InactivDir%"

and

C:\Program Files\TeraCopy\TeraCopy.exe Move *"%ActivSelAsFileUtf8%" "%InactivDir%"
In FC copying with F5 or moving with F6 works and Tera copy opens.
ALso when using the copy & move buttons between the panes works.

Sadly, CTRL-C & CTRL-V does open the default windows dialog :(

Any hint's what i am doing wrong?
Is there an setting i am missing.

thx

I have Tera Copy 4.0RC installed.
When I set the option to make it the default copy handler
it's definitely used in FC and other file managers with Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V
Windows 11 Home, Version 25H2 (OS Build 26200.8117)
Everything Version 1.5.0.1408a (x64), Everything Toolbar 2.3.0, Listary Pro 6.3.6.99
FreeCommander XE 2025 Build 946 64-bit donor

Sadly, for me it does not work.
Anyways, have removed and will not use Tera Copy.
I am fine with the windows copy dialog.

I have been using the same settings in my FreeCommander throughout various Builds and do not recall having such issues - at least not since I set-up my TeraCopy 3.17 in such a way

TeraCopy 3.17 settings that integrate with FC.png

The above combo worked on Windows 10 Enterprise 20H2 x64 (10.0.19042) and still does on Windows 10 IOT Enterprise LTSC 21H2 x64 (19044.6691)
