Supercopier 5 Unity Install

Feature proposal: "SuperCopier 5 Unity Install"

Security and Privacy: Is SuperCopier 5 Safe?

Yes.

• No telemetry: SC5 phones home to exactly zero servers.
• Open source: You can audit the code on GitHub.
• No file uploads: All copying stays local or to your mounted network drives.

The only “risk” is the false-positive virus flag due to shell extension hooking. Submit the file to Microsoft as a false positive if it annoys you. supercopier 5 unity install

Implementation outline

1. Detection
   • Parse Unity Hub manifests and common install paths to enumerate versions.
2. Installation (Editor Extension mode)
   • Generate a Unity package (unitypackage or UPM package) that includes a small Editor script hooking into AssetPostprocessor or AssetDatabase operations to call a local SuperCopier service/CLI for heavy copy/move tasks.
   • Use Unity's Package Manager or install via Assets → Import Package for stand-alone installs.
3. Installation (External Hook mode)
   • On Windows: create a wrapper for copy operations used by Unity build scripts or register SuperCopier CLI in PATH and optionally replace copy.exe equivalents for project folders.
   • On macOS/Linux: install a symlinked wrapper in /usr/local/bin or use a filesystem-level tool (launchd/systemd user service) to intercept calls for specific project directories.
4. Safety & rollback
   • Wrap copy operations in transactions, keep temp copies and metadata to revert on failure; provide checksum verification.
5. UI/UX
   • SuperCopier settings page with detected Unity installs, install/uninstall buttons, mode selector, and per-project overrides.
6. Security
   • Sign installers where possible; document required permissions; avoid modifying Unity internals beyond supported extension points.

Step 2: Run the Installer

1. Right-click installer → Run as Administrator.
2. Accept UAC prompt.
3. Choose language (English/French).
4. Accept license (GPL for most forks).

• Select a folder (e.g., C:\Users\Public\Videos).
• Press Ctrl+C then Ctrl+V in another location.

What should happen: Instead of Microsoft’s tiny progress bar, SuperCopier 5’s large, detailed dialog appears. It shows: No telemetry: SC5 phones home to exactly zero servers

• Individual file speed
• Estimated time per file
• Pause/Resume button
• Error-skipping toggle

If the default Windows dialog appears:

• Re-run the installer and force the shell extension.
• Or run regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\SuperCopier5\SuperCopier5ShellExt.dll" as admin.

Part 1: Downloading the Correct Version

Do not download from generic "download sites" that bundle adware. Locate the official (archived) source.

1. Source: The original Google Code or GitHub archive (e.g., supercopier5-unity).
2. Filename example: SuperCopier5_Unity_v5.1.1.2_Setup.exe (or a similar version number).
3. Checks: Ensure the file size is around 4–6 MB. Anything larger may be bundled with unwanted software.
