Subject  :  How do I fix existing sfn errors?
Size(KB) :  0


I'm new to XXCOPY and the plethora of switches that controls its 
execution is quite overwhelming so I need some help. :)

The situation is this: I have already created backups of my various 
partitions to a backup partition using another product which 
unfortunately did not preserve the short filenames and I'd like to 
use xxcopy to correct this. How do I do that?

Looking at the documentation it looks like the /NS switch is just 
what I want:

xxcopy c: z:\DaveWinSys /s /ns

Yes? No?

I tried the above command but it flooded the console with a bunch of 
console messages saying the short filenames were the same. All I want 
to see are any messages saying that it fixed a short filename that 
was wrong. How do I suppress the console display to get just that? 
Would the /Q switc do it, or should I use a different switch?

Thanks!
