Tera Copy 64 Bit?
Just Wondering
Would you consider creating a 64 bit version on Teracopy? I run a 64 bit version of windows 10 and the current 32 bit version of teracopy has so many problems with windows 10 x64.

32 bit application issue
Teracopy would perform better if run on x64 system as an x64 process.
The current Teracopy installs and runs as a 32-bit process, even on 64-bit systems.
Virtually nobody actually uses 32-bit Windows anymore, so I'd suggest that Teracopy be updated to run natively as a 64-bit process on 64-bit Windows systems. This will significantly improve performance.
On a side note, the lack of native 64-bit support is the reason why I continue to use the free version, and have not purchased the Pro Version.

"A developer that wants to provide a 64-bit version of their program has to do additional work. They have to make sure the existing code compiles and runs correctly as 64-bit software. They have to provide and support two separate versions of the program, as people running a 32-bit version of Windows can’t use the 64-bit version.
And in many apps, people just wouldn’t notice a difference anyway. The 32-bit program can run just fine on a 64-bit version of Windows, and there’d be no noticeable advantages with a 64-bit version."

Maybe you want to reconsider this as even Microsoft clearly stated that future versions of Windows will be x64 only.
Teracopy has an unacceptable defect on 64 bit Windows OS: you can't copy/paste files in system32 folder because all are redirected to the SysWOW64 folder.
It's a problem of all 32 bit copy application.
Teracopy 64 bit is a must
