  1. Quickest way for Windows to check existing files when pasting?


    I'm trying to do manual backups from an internal to an external drive automatic backups aren't working for me and I need to find the most efficient way to ensure Windows checks existing files and copies only new or amended files an incremental backup, I think. Are there any options other than a simple select, copy and paste? What seems to happen is that Windows takes a long time attempting to paste the block of files and then eventually produces the dialog offering to skip or replace. As I want to do this for 600GB of files, this would take indeed a very long time. Any way to speed it up?H

    :)

    What's the quickest way to spell check arbitrary text in Windows 10?

    It is fast in CudaText editor:

    • Plugins/ Addon Manager/ Install: choose here Spell Checker plugin
    • open new tab
    • paste your text
    • Plugins/ Spell Checker/ Check text with suggestions: it will show red underlines for bad words
