i don’t know if this is the right thing to do but i assume a flag of
FO_SEQUENTIAL_ONLY in the file obj to mean “copy and paste”… :stuck_out_tongue:

As you may copy a file using any method, what you want is not possible.
There is a flag that indicates a file is being opened for backup but is not
used but in rare ocassions.

However when using CopyFileEx, for example, the copy operation is made in a
particular
way not used in every other copy method (although it might be used by any
application, of course).

CopyFileEx maps the entire source file and then writes to target file using
a
write with mapped memory as source buffer. Also it creates the
target file in exclusive mode (i.e.not shared writes or reads are allowed
until closed).

This behaviour is a good clue to guess this is a copy operation.

Inaki.
