How to copy a Windows PC flash drive

This is not specifically about modeling, except I've heard a few people lament about losing their models through a flash drive crash. I just learned how to copy a flash drive and thought I'd share the technique. This is on a Windows PC, I don't know what would be different with a Mac.

First, insert both the old and the new drives into separate USB ports. Using File Explorer, open the old flash drive. You should see all your files.
Press "control", then "a". This selects all of the files.
Press "control", then "c". This copies all of the files.
Next, open the new flash drive. Press "control", then "v".(Or, you could right click and select "paste"). This will copy all of the files.
