in reply to Moving files and directories
Here is just an example...
C:\Projects>help xcopy Copies files and directory trees. XCOPY source [destination] [/A | /M] [/D[:date]] [/P] [/S [/E]] [/V] [ +/W] [/C] [/I] [/Q] [/F] [/L] [/G] [/H] [/R] [/T +] [/U] [/K] [/N] [/O] [/X] [/Y] [/-Y] [/Z] [/EXCLUDE:file1[+file2][+file3]...] source Specifies the file(s) to copy. destination Specifies the location and/or name of new files. /A Copies only files with the archive attribute set, doesn't change the attribute. /M Copies only files with the archive attribute set, turns off the archive attribute. /D:m-d-y Copies files changed on or after the specified date. If no date is given, copies only those files whose source time is newer than the destination time. /EXCLUDE:file1[+file2][+file3]... Specifies a list of files containing strings. Each str +ing should be in a separate line in the files. When any of + the strings match any part of the absolute path of the file + to be copied, that file will be excluded from being copied. +For example, specifying a string like \obj\ or .obj will ex +clude all files underneath the directory obj or all files wit +h the .obj extension respectively. /P Prompts you before creating each destination file. /S Copies directories and subdirectories except empty ones +. /E Copies directories and subdirectories, including empty +ones. Same as /S /E. May be used to modify /T. /V Verifies each new file. /W Prompts you to press a key before copying. /C Continues copying even if errors occur. /I If destination does not exist and copying more than one + file, assumes that destination must be a directory. /Q Does not display file names while copying. /F Displays full source and destination file names while c +opying. /L Displays files that would be copied. /G Allows the copying of encrypted files to destination th +at does not support encryption. /H Copies hidden and system files also. /R Overwrites read-only files. /T Creates directory structure, but does not copy files. D +oes not include empty directories or subdirectories. /T /E incl +udes empty directories and subdirectories. /U Copies only files that already exist in destination. /K Copies attributes. Normal Xcopy will reset read-only at +tributes. /N Copies using the generated short names. /O Copies file ownership and ACL information. /X Copies file audit settings (implies /O). /Y Suppresses prompting to confirm you want to overwrite a +n existing destination file. /-Y Causes prompting to confirm you want to overwrite an existing destination file. /Z Copies networked files in restartable mode. The switch /Y may be preset in the COPYCMD environment variable. This may be overridden with /-Y on the command line.
