FileInfoCopyTo Method (String, PathFormat)

[AlphaFS] Copies an existing file to a new file, disallowing the overwriting of an existing file.
Remarks

Use this method to prevent overwriting of an existing file by default.

Whenever possible, avoid using short file names (such as XXXXXX~1.XXX) with this method.

If two files have equivalent short file names then this method may fail and raise an exception and/or result in undesirable behavior.
