    How to move sparse file maintening the real sparse dimensions

    @einstein1969,

    Unless I'm way off base, my understanding is that if you copy or move a sparse file from one NTFS volume to another NTFS volume, the sparse file will remain a sparse file. Have you actually tried this as a test to see if that is the case?

    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
