Windows 10: BATch output to file Heeeelp!

Win10 - 64 bit Pro. Version 1909. fully up to date, but obviously with KB4524244 uninstalled. *Sad

G'day folks.

I have a Win .BAT file that I run every day to copy important data from the days doings from the C:\ VRPC to the D:\VRPC.

Below is one command line from the BAT file... (There are a number of others).

XCopy C:"Apps\VirtualRPC-DL620\HardDisc4\Net\Pluto\!Pluto\Articles" D:"ROStuff\VirtualRPC-DL620\HardDisc4\Net\Pluto\!Pluto\Articles" /Y


This copies the Pluto Articles Directory/files from the C to the D drive, in the process displaying the files onscreen as they are copied.

What I'm after is additional commands/flags that will output the processes displayed to a file?

Thanks
Dave

I'm aware there are those flags, but I can't get them to work. :-(

Batch Files Knowledge Base

Don't use batch files very much but one I find useful is for creating a list of files in a directory.
Just copy the text below into Notepad and save as Filelist.bat

dir /a /-p /o:gen >filelist.txt

When you run it from a folder it will create a Filelist.txt file,in the same folder, that lists all the files in that folder.Useful when you are too lazy to type all the files out yourself.

Task Scheduler Batch file

if you launch a batch file as any user it will launch in that users account.

Create a batch that runs "dir" command and outputs it to a text file, that will be in said users account, and if it exists already it just reads the username from teh text file.

I will tell you what you need to know, but I'm not doing it for you.
