Hello User,
I have a problem with ROBOCOPY:
I entered this command in a bat ...
Code: Select all
robocopy "c:\data" "d:\data" /COPY:DAT /MIR /FFT /R:1 /W:1
The problem it copies some directories "over and over" with the display: 100% Older [file size and file name].
What is going wrong here ?

Depending on what "over and over" means, one possibility is that the source has a junction point which refers to something in its own parent. So Robocopy just follows forever in a loop. To stop this, use the /XJ switch.
