Parameters

transaction: Type: Alphaleonis.Win32.FilesystemKernelTransaction
The transaction.
sourceFileName: Type: SystemString

destinationFileName: Type: SystemString
The name of the destination file. This cannot be a directory.
copyOptions: Type: Alphaleonis.Win32.FilesystemCopyOptions
CopyOptions that specify how the file is to be copied. This parameter can be .
preserveDates: Type: SystemBoolean
if original Timestamps must be preserved, otherwise.
progressHandler: Type: Alphaleonis.Win32.FilesystemCopyMoveProgressRoutine

Remarks

Option NoBuffering is recommended for very large file transfers.

The attributes of the original file are retained in the copied file.

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.
