Abstract: A method and system for copying files between drives of a computer system is provided. The method begins where files are selected to be copied from a first drive of the computer system to a second drive of the computer system. The selected files include operating system files, program files and data files. The method then proceeds to commencing an initial copying of the selected files. While the initial files are being copied, a list of non-copied files is generated. The list of non-copied files represent files that are locked by an operating system. A raw data copy is performed during the initial copying by referencing a FAT table of the drive from which data is copied from for each file in the list of non-copied files. A shut down of the operating system is then commenced. The operating system is configured to shut down and release the files previously locked by the operating system.
