Hi,

This might be a permissions issue. Please try the following:

Code:

robocopy "C:\Users\VocWorks User" E:\Backup /MIR /E /COPYALL

I just noticed that /mir also implies /e - I think that must have changed recently, or perhaps I missed it, so yes, you could disregard the /e, but only if you are using /mir.

Regards,
Golden

robocopy "C:\Users\VocWorks User" E:\Backup /MIR /E /COPYALL
I did the about as suggest. I even took the /E out. I am getting an error. Screen shot attached.

Hi Epoc,

My Documents is one of those mystical junction points in Windows Explorer - its real name isn't 'My Documents', its actually just 'Documents', which is why your second version works just fine.

See below (notice the name in the bar at the top of the image).

Cheers Julian - I never noticed that before, but looking closer Step 1 and 2 are black, and the rest is the default? colour, whatever it is - it doesn't show in the box. I'll find out what it is and fix it.

EDIT: Fixed!
