I need to move files from one drive to another reliably. The files are
several hundreds of GB of avi files that cannot be replaced.

Is there a way to have windows explorer verify file copy before deleting the
source (when moving)?

If not, is there a free GUI utility that performs file copy and verify?

I'm not interested in command line solution like verify on, xcopy, xxcopy,
...

I'm using windows XP, but a solution that works in both XP and Vista is even
better.

Thanks.

There is a gui version to setup Robocopy but that only creates a text log
file at the end which does not seem to be something that you are interested
in.

I believe you are only going to find command line utilities to do the copy,
verify, the delete of the original.

Download Fastcopy 1.99r4.
It will not delete the original until the copy has been verified. It is also multi-threaded and uses Windows ACL and Alternate Streams.
Best of all, it's free.
