Interestingly, Andreas also reported a similar problem with
prompting when using /clone. I can't replicate your problem
but maybe there is a bug. I assume the source is a network
drive. What is the destination? If you don't sort it out, try
the following command then cut and paste the contents of
xxcopy.log back here. Also advise which directories you are
being prompted on - is there anything unusual about the names?

xxcopy z:\data\ k:\backup\data\ /CLONE/FF/NX0/PZ0/ON:xxcopy.log
