Default Copy a file into several different folders at once

Is there a way to copy a file and paste it into several different folders at
once. Or do I have to copy and paste this file one at a time into each
folder?

thanks

The later, unless you create a batch (bat file) file to do the copying
for you, but it is still one destination at a time.
