The File Copy Service is exactly what the name implies. It is a very thin Windows NT/2000 service with a small footprint that is used to move files from an originator to a destination folder at regular intervals in the background as a service. All interaction is to the Application Event Log and the initial values are set during installation and can be changed via the registry at any time. On installation a file cpyserv.exe will be placed in the system32 folder and will be installed automatically. If there is a problem you can manually install the service as follows: 1. Ensure the extracted cpyserv.exe is in the %systemroot%\system32 folder (not the downloaded cpyserv.exe, the extracted file is around 28KB) 2. Start a command prompt (cmd.exe) 3. Type the command C:\WINNT\system32>cpyserv -i File Copy Service installed. 4. The service should now be displayed in the services applet To uninstall use the Add/Remove programs applet (Start - Settings - Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs) or if you just wish to remove the service use command: C:\WINNT\system32>cpyServ -u File Copy Service removed.
