Hi John.

I'm a rank amateur here. However, Kan posted earlier (perhaps before you joined
us) encouraging everyone to include a trailing backslash after the final folder
in order to avoid ambiguity. The /s may go anywhere in the switch list.

xxcopy "D:\John's Documents\everything\" "F:\John's Documents\everything\"
/s/y should accomplish your goal if only the \everything folder is the one you
wish to transfer. Otherwise, xxcopy "D:\John's Documents"\ "F:\John's
Documents\" /s/y to transfer everything in that folder and all subfolders,
including the everything folder. You may wish to include the /bi switch for
incremental backups. Or perhaps one of the explicit date or size switches.

The Folder Everything contains files & folders .

Object , to copy changed files & folders in Everything .

Option 1 . Overwrite y/n/a

Option 2 . Nothing happens .

Option 3 . Tried a lot of combinations of the /s switch , but was
unable to work out exactly
where to put it .
