SQLPlus - Data Pump (expdp and impdp)

some time ago, I installed Oracle SQLPlus without full Oracle database package. Now I need expdp and impdp utility. Is it possible to copy important files from a full Oracle installation and pasting them into SQLPlus directory?

Or maybe is there any other option to install only expdp and impdp? (Windows)

Regards, Kamil

Not really.

But, you don't have to actually 'Install' the full client.

Our latest distribution includes an Instant Client with sql*loader and data pump utilities.

Grab this one

Instant Client Package - Tools: Includes Data Pump, SQLLoader and Workload Replay Client*

There's no installer. Just unzip it, and add the directory to your PATH. You should be good to go then.

I wouldn't dump the files into your existing directory where you have SQLPlus though, just put it in a fresh directory and use that instead of your old one.
