Windows 10: Copying method something similar to xcopy?

Hi,I need to backup only new files brand new files, or files which have newer modification date.Normally, my lovely old fashion XCOPY /d /s is meeting my need 100% for many many years.But I have problem with that because of some long sub folders + file names I get in sufficient memory error.Is there another way in Windows 10, to backup the similar logic of Xcopy i.e., it will compare source and the target and copy only - new created files - and files which have newer modification date.- and I will see the target in the regular folder by folder, file by file format not a zipped or simila

XCopy not working on Win10

Hi,

There is a thread on this topic but it doesn't show a resolution.

Has something changed where xcopy doesn't work on Win10?

I am looking to copy files and I can't get even the simpliest .bat file to work. Copying 1 file to another folder on the C directory.

@EchoOff xcopy C:\files\test.bat C:\files-to\

Any suggestions are appreciated!

thanks,

joan

Can someone provide me with the xcopy setup to copy all files from drive c:\ to a Seagate Backup Drive, e.g., I mean the flags /e /s etc.? I'm forgetful and can't remember how to us xcopy. Thanks!
