Windows 10: copy command in an unattend file to just copy shortcuts to the desktop

Hello All, I have created a new image for our laptops that we are deploying out. In this new image I would like to copy two shortcuts to the local administrator's desktop. I have the administrator's account to be set to active under the 4 specialize section of the answer file. The administrator account is also set to auto login. Everything runs as it should when I mage a laptop BUT the commands I have entered to just copy the .lnk files from a folder on the root of C:\ to the Administrator's desktop does not work. I basically copied the command I used at the command prompt to make sure the command works and it does if I run it manually. I have created a SynchronousCommand under the 7 oobe System>FirstLogonCommands section with the following command under the Settings>CommandLine field: copy "C:\_Install\XImaging\DesktopIcons\_Install Folder.lnk" C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop What am I doing wrong??

Java.nio.file - Copying files

You can't copy a folder, thats why it generates an exception (you are trying to copy a folder using a copy file function).
You probably need to list all the files inside that folder and copy one by one

Issue was the above, so thanks temp02.

 

how do i copy harddrive?

No the move command, will reset all shortcuts and registry entries, trust me i cut and pasted a whole hard drive once and wow, what a mistake. From then on i i used the move command, so you din't need to re do all of the shortcuts and such.

If your copying windows, do it in dos, when windows isn't running.
