Copy contents of a directory

If you need to create a batch file in Windows to copy the content of a directory including its subdirectory, you can use 'xcopy'.

xcopy /s c:\source d:\target

These are some of the options you can use with the command

• /s/e - recursive copy, including copying empty directories.
• /v - add this to verify the copy against the original. slower, but for the paranoid.
• /h - copy system and hidden files.
• /k - copy read-only attributes along with files. otherwise, all files become read-write.
• /x - if you care about permissions, you might want /o or /x.
• /y - don't prompt before overwriting existing files.
• /z - if you think the copy might fail and you want to restart it, use this. It places a marker on each file as it copies, so you can rerun the xcopy command to pick up from where it left off.
