my bat file has these two for loops for copying files and moving folders. Need to modify them
to rename files and folders that already exist in the destination with a time stamp before copying and moving the sources.

for /f "tokens=* delims= " %%f in ('dir/s/b dira\*.bin ^|find /v "DDD"') do (copy "%%f" dirb)

for /f %%d in ('dir /b /ad "dirC"') do (move /y dir1\%%d dirD)

I think this should do it:

Code: Select all

for /f "tokens=* delims= " %%f in ('dir/s/b dira\*.bin ^|find /v "DDD"') do (
   if exist %%f rename %%f %%f%DATE:~-4%-%DATE:~4,2%-%DATE:~7,2%
   copy "%%f" dirb
)

for /f %%d in ('dir /b /ad "dirC"') do (
   if exist %%d rename %%d %%d%DATE:~-4%-%DATE:~4,2%-%DATE:~7,2%
   move /y dirC\%%d dirD
)
