Alternatives to XCopy for copying lots of files? -
the situation: have pieceofcrapuous laptop. 1 of things make pieceofcrapuous battery dead, , power cable pulls out of little effort.
i received non-pieceofcrapuous laptop, , in process of copying old new. i'm trying xcopy c:*.* old machine external hard drive, because cord pulls out frequently, xcopy interrupted often.
what need switch in xcopy copy eveything except files exist in destination folder -- exact opposite of behavior of /u switch.
does know of way this?
/d may looking for. find works quite fast backing-up existing files not copied.
xcopy "o:\*.*" n:\whatever /c /d /s /h /c continues copying if errors occur. /d:m-d-y copies files changed on or after specified date. if no date given, copies files source time newer destination time. /s copies directories , subdirectories except empty ones. /h copies hidden , system files also.
