Not sure what Win's task is, but in my case, Due to a system upgrade at work, our log files got cut twice a day instead of once.
Using the appending feature of copy was literally a 2 second fix to make the report look the same...

    Which is great if the only files in the directory are the two halves of the log file. But I'd still use 

    copy log1+log2 log

    The thing that has me intrigued is Wins

    combine all files in a folder, stacked one on top of another in a single file?

    Especially if there is any possibility of any binary files in that folder.
