You have probably installed the XAD plugin globally with the InstallAdapter option (like
@REQUIRE "xad", {InstallAdapter = True}), and that's why it uses XAD for
CopyFile() too.
You can now bypass that globally installed adapter by using
CopyFile() with the Inbuilt adapter like this:
CopyFile("archive.lha", "destination", {Adapter="Inbuilt"})
Other option is to disable the global adapter and then use {Adapter = "xad"} with
CopyFile() only when you really need to extract archives.
