MacDaddy has unveiled Duplicate 1.0, a productivity application developed specifically for Mac OS X Yosemite.

It’s designed to enhance the Finder’s standard copy and paste functionality by making them more efficient, as well as performing approximately 10% faster than stock copy and paste methods. Duplicate can also copy large folders with no issues involving file permissions, as well as the ability to copy entire volumes, creating an exact duplicate bootable copy of the original volume. It installs itself as an option into the contextual menu that appears when you Control-Click or right-click a file, folder, or drive.

This makes Duplicate just as easy to use as the standard OS X copy and paste functions, while providing a copy and paste operation that is both faster and more efficient. Duplicate avoids failed copies with large folders, and users won’t experience any issues with permissions as they sometime do with the standard Copy and Paste functions. Duplicate creates an exact duplicate of the data that is copied and pasted using the app.

It requires OS X 10.10 Yosemite or later. It’s free and is available worldwide exclusively as a direct download from the MacDaddy website (http://macdaddy.io).
