Total Commander works with two windows.
One (the currently active) is the source window, the other is the target window.
On devices which have a wide display both screens are displayed together (left-side / right-side).
The currently active window is larger.
On devices with a smaller display only the active window is shown.
There are markers (black arrows) on the left or right side.
Tapping on the markers changes the window.
You also can swipe from left to right or the other way around to change between the two windows.
So if you want to copy files, you first have to select the target folder,
then switch between the windows and select the source folder.
Select all files you want to copy in the source folder and then click on the copy icon.
The copy dialog appears and shows the target path. Also you can select whether to copy or to move the files.
Move is only possible, if the source and target path are in the same USB-filesystem.
Otherwise a "Function not supported" message will appear.
Here is an example step-by-step instruction how to copy files:
1. Attach a pen-drive and Start Total Commander
2. Total Commander shows the root folder of your pen drive.
3. swipe right to left to switch to the other window.
3. Click on the "Downloads" folder
4. swipe left to right to switch back to the window showing your pen drive
5. select the files to be copied (tap on the icon)
6. click on the "copy" icon
7. select "copy", not move.
