- Copies directories and directory trees.
-
- XCOPY source [destination] [/C=creator] [/D:date] [/E] [/P] [/S] [/T=file-type] [/V]
-
- source identifies the directory to be copied.
- destination identifies the location of the new files. It defaults to the
- current directory.
- /C=creator only copies files of the given creator.
- /D:date copies files changed on or after the specified date.
- /E copies all [sub]directories, even if empty.
- /P prompts the user before creating each destination file.
- /S copies directories and subdirectories except empty ones.
- /T=file-type only copies files of the given type.
- /V verifies each file copied.
-
- Hidden files are not copied.
- Aliases are not resolved. Therefore, aliased folders appear in the
- copied directory as they appeared in the original one.
- Files and subdirectories cannot be copied onto themselves. Therefore,
- 'source' and 'destination' must identify different directories.
