What's the easiest way to copy, say, 50 folders out of 500 from one drive to
another?

I was hoping I could drag-and-drop multiple folders to the input line, but it
only recognizes one folder at a time. The 'Hard' way would be to 'Include'
(filter) the individual folders, but that would require manually inputting
each one. Is there an easier way that I'm overlooking?


Also, I have folder C:\aaa\bbb\ccc that I need to copy to D:\. If I drag and
drop the folder to the Source line, then enter D:\ as the destination,
everything in \ccc is copied to the root of D:\. The subdirectory \ccc is not
created. Is there a way to copy the folder and contents over AND retain the
directory structure?

First add a list of empty folder pairs via the "plus" button (on left side of
right main directory field). Then drag and drop each folder individually onto
the directory input fields. This should be reasonably fast.

Yes. Specify "C:\aaa\bbb\" as source folder and set a (local) include filder
to "\ccc\*".
