Thank you very much! A first test showed me that it works fine. It also supports FAT32 and 4 GB files.
While testing I noticed another tool that has problems with FAT32.
MOVE seems to support files only up to 2 GB. With higher values it reports:
"Insufficient disk space in destination path" although there is space enough (32 GB free).
