  1. Are there any GUI-based apps I can use to mass-copy files while leaving all folderdates intact?


    I know that you can do this with commandline tools like Robocopy, but the issue is that I need to mass-select several dozen folders and selectively exclude specific folders or sub-folders, no real easy way to do that with a commandline.

    But if I use standard Windows copy tools that's just going to change the dates on all the folders as it basically re-creates them on a copy.

    Any freeware GUI based tools to do something like this?

    Java.nio.file - Copying files

    You can't copy a folder, thats why it generates an exception (you are trying to copy a folder using a copy file function).
    You probably need to list all the files inside that folder and copy one by one
