XCOPY HELP!

I'm in Recovery Manager trying to move the files to the computer on a USB, yes I only have a USB key so I don't want to use the backup utility. I am using the command prompt and I have a ton of photo folders and subfolders that I would copy before you reset the computer to factory settings, I know that Xcopy will help me to do it, I don't know how. I want to copy all documents in the folder images. anyone has any idea how?

Hello

Vista XCOPY command

The Xcopy command syntax
http://commandwindows.com/xcopy.htm

----------------------------------------------

Vista also supports the latest RoboCopy command that adds more features and functionality
and uses most of the Xcopy command structure. Highly recommend the use of this instead of Xcopy.

    Hello

    I need to download a file from the network, not always the same folder it will be I hope with pragmatism, controlled, and its subfolders, if any.

    You can explore the possibilities of LaunceExecutableEx, particularly for its ability to hide the program window. Remember this is an asynchronous call, so if you want the investigation process you must save the handle returned by the command, and to periodically check its State with function (ExecutableHasTerminated).

  • Xcopy - need of path of the error log file

    Hey Microsoft,

    I run the xcopy command:

    xcopy/C/H/E "C:\Original" /e > "C:\LOGFILE. TXT"2 >"C:\ERROR_LOGFILE. TXT ".

    The error log gives me this result:

    "File creation error - the system cannot find the file specified."

    But I need the path of the file that caused this error.

    How this is done?

  • BACK XCOPY batch file

    I used my memory limited programming back to create a simple series of batch files to back up the important data on 2 separate PC [a running XP Home, the other XP Professional] their respective external hard drives.  For this I used the XCOPY command more switches as shown on different help sites.  The results seem to have been successful.  With the exception of the XP Home PC, where I created the following command to copy the contents of my programs folder

    c:
    xcopy "c:\Program Files\ *.» ' ' * J:\DellPrograms\*.* /CDYSWFHUR
    pause
     
    With the appropriate changes to the details by car this command worked OK on XP Prof. machine  On the XP Home, similar batch files machine worked for pure data files.  But I can't understand why when the execution of the file above on XP Home the DOS window opens - as it should - but when I tap a button to continue the window closes immediately without anything happening. I am aware that reinstalling a program isn't as simple or the same copy of a piece of text, but that shouldn't stop backup me original exe files.  I've fiddled about with some of the switches, but without apparent effect. All the batch files are stored in the folder of programs with links to the desktop for ease of use, but it doesn't make a difference which way I click on it (as I expect).  I am running out of ideas, I hope someone will have a brainwave.

  • Corrupt registry, need help please

    Hello I have a Dell Optiplex GX 270 that I bought used from a store of Liquidation of the Office, the vehicle currently has Windows XP Professional installed SP3. When I have this home computer I noticed he had all kinds of problems, so I started to try to solve the problems. Some of the problems he was and still is, computer is slow, it has a Pentium 4 chip. Programs keep freezing, sometimes processor overclocks his car and works 100% for minutes at a time, as soon as I turn on the computer all of a sudden.

    Don't know I tried several things, I tried to format and reinstall the operating system, it does not work, I ran badly ware, sdfix and other related programs. I entered in the registry it is auto and remove all keys possible, when I found under hkey_local_machine, under control sets, all sorts of _, as all services installed and running of has keys z. special, secret keys that have been installed by a hacker, I even found that the hard drive had been located and was fixed everytime I log on windows the computer of the intruder connects automatically.

    Now, as I said I've removed all the keys in the registry and then reinstalled the operating system on a disk I got from Dell, I thought that I had the problem supported until I went into the registry and looked, when I looked I found everything that I had deleted was back.

    Know that it happens every time, I can format, I can destroy the score, I can destroy the registry, but every time I do reinstall an operating system, every thing comes back as ever, I remove anything. I searched the hidden Partitions, I ran spy bot and related programs, what they find is much win socks, services, plug-ins and anything else you can think of, the registry is damaged, I even ran a program called XL delete 2 it is a file, the file shredder and what he finds is and epic on the files program files at the following address windows, documents, and settings is files that are not common to windows at all, it's like they are piggy backing on the back side of the folders.

    Don't know that I do not know where this info could be hiding, but there must be somewhere and help to fix this would be greatly appreciated, and I do mean any help, just know that I am pulling my hair out trying to find where it is hidden. I thank you for your time and have a nice day

    Valérie

    I just try the following other assistance to people on the registry problems, and here's what I typed and the result.

    I typed the following at the command prompt

    CD /D C:\windows\system32\config

    Xcopy *. * C:\Regback\ when I hit the button ENTER here is what I got

    C:AppEvent.evt

    C:default

    Sharing violation

    Also I can't use system restore, there is no restore point, also I can type SC QUERY from the command prompt and then it shows 30 services installed and running and are all default actions, I also used the service SC Delete to end this, but again once I have do a reinstall or even shut down my computer and restart all return

    You really need to end your attachment to the registry; It is a herring! Not only that, you will be more probably damage your system if you have the wrong with it. So it is now OFF LIMITS! :-)

    Also, don't you worry on the hard drive. Chances are you have just done the Clean install incorrectly.

    You must follow ALL of the instructions for a clean install. This means that you must:

    1. start from the hard disk (hit F12 immediately after the turning on a Dell computer should allow you to do)

    2 delete all partitions

    3. create a new partition

    4. format the newly created partition

    (in the case otherwise, you wind up having a bunch of parallel installations in disorder, you want a CLEAN installation!)

    Maybe this guide will be better for you:

    http://www.windowsxpprofessional.WindowsReinstall.com/sp2sp3installxpcdoldhdd/indexfullpage.htm

    (Ignore the ads!)

    And once you're done, you will need to install all the correct drivers for your hardware (for example, the motherboard, network adapter, chipset card graphic and sound card). You'll find them all on the Dell Web site (select support).

  • ODAC 12 c for xcopy issues

    Hi all

    Today, I upgraded customer 12 c ODAC for our product. I have always used version of xcopy. It is easy to deploy. But I have 2 problems in its new version of xcopy:

    1 dot does not load the file with spaces.

    My install command: install odp.net4 "C:\Program Files\Fichiers Files\ODP .NET" TestODAC
    The exception:

    These are very strange questions. When I use the Installer version, everything is ok.  Does he know what should I do?  Any suggestion is of great help for me. Thank you.

    In my view, that the cause of this problem is the Oracle xcopy installation directory has not been added to the PATH of the Windows System. This is described in step 4 of the installation of the xcopy README instructions.

    ====================

    4. Add the installation directory and install the subdirectory bin of the directory to the PATH environment variable before any other Oracle Directory. Otherwise, the products that are installed may not work properly because it will not be able to load the necessary dll. for example, if c:\oracle has been provided in the installation directory, add c:\oracle and c:\oracle\bin to the system path.

    < cfdump var = "#myExecute #" >

    When you work with cfexecute, try the commands directly firstly using a command prompt. This will verify the configuration and the configuration of the paths in your system. Try raising a window of commands and typing just xcopy. You should get an error called "Invalid number of parameters - 0 copied files." If you don't get this error, you will need to find some directory copy program that installed your system. It might be xcopy32

    Once you verify that you have xcopy or equivalent, try manually using the settings to see if she's copying the directory.

  • Need help to find an adapter for a third-party monitor

    Hi all! I find myself in need of a little guidance, and I hope that someone out there will have a quick n easy for me...

    I have a Mid-2011 27 'iMac. which has two ports Thunderbolt It is taken with a Wacom tablet that I use constantly, and the other is made by an external hard drive to a solid state, which has a built-in cable to Thunderbolt (no way to hang it on a different port). I also have a 27 "HP monitor that is currently connected via an HDMI USB adapter.

    The problem is that the HP monitor is actual "jiggy" - the USB does not seem fast enough to deal with requests for the monitor. It is almost unusable. I know I should run it via a HDMI adapter Thunderbolt, but as I have already mentioned the two my Thunderbolt ports are already in use.

    Someone at - it ideas? I need sort of three to two ports Thunderbolt hooks, but I can't seem to find anything for less than $300 that would work. (I am illiterate when it comes to the different cables, adapters, ports, etc., so I hope someone can point me in the right direction by using short words... Most of the products that I travel through list specifications that me Chicane).

    The monitor has two HDMIs and a VGA port, and my iMac has a Firewire 800 port, if that helps at all...

    2011 iMac have only 1 Thunderbolt port and there is no such thing as a Mid-2011, you must have an iMac of year later, if it has 2 ports Thunderbolt. All the 27 "iMacs, from 2012 to 2015 the current have 2 ports Thunderbolt.
