The escopy file extension is associated with ES File Explorer – a file and application manager for Android. Escopy files store temporary data. These files are not meant to be accessed by users.
Escopy is a file extension commonly linked to ES File Explorer’s temporary files. The escopy specification was created by ES APP Group. Files with escopy extension may be used by Android programs.
The escopy file extension can be found in other file types too. It may not be supported by ES File Explorer or similar programs.
To copy files of a certain extension, loop through all files and check the extension. Then, copy only the matching ones.
Use the find command to locate files of a specific extension recursively. Then, pass this output to the cp command to copy them. The syntax to locate jpg files is:
$ find . -name ‘*.jpg’
Pipe the output to the cp command using xargs. Specify the target directory with the -t flag, else cp uses the find output as target.
$ find . -name ‘*.jpg’ | xargs cp -t Pictures2/
The escopy file functions like crdownload files. It markers file actions like downloads or copies in case of interruptions. The “escopy” appears as a compound extension. If an apk file named example.apk is downloading, the file would be example.apk.escopy.
