Copy a Folder Structure without Actually Copying the Contained Files in a Folder

[wpfilebase tag=file id=5]

We are so used to copy fodders from one place to another on the harddrive, but there are times when we want to copy a folder with only the folder structure without the files from one place to another on the same harddrive or to a different harddrive.

These scenarios occur rarely for example when you want to transfer only some of the files from a folder to different place (folder) but still want to maintain the folder structure of that folder without actually copying all the files. If this kind of scenario occur we can use a simple freeware utility called TreeCopy.

TreeCopy is built exactly for this purpose to copy the folder structure without the files in the folder (we may copy them selectively later-on manually). Simply set the source folder in the left pane and the destination folder where you want to copy the folder structure in the right pane and hit the Go button to execute the operation.

 You can download this utility from the RJL Software here and the mean time give me some time to think about possible scenarios where this utility may come handy!
