Windows 10: Robocopy options

I have a batch file that contains this line
Code:

In the log file I get this
Code:

So there are som extra options in the log file. /DCOPY and /COPY are the default values so I get them. Also /PURGE might make sense...

But why is there both /S and /E ?
Is they the opposite?

Robocopy invalid parameter 3

Not sure what I'm doing wrong here but this script keeps telling me that a parameter is invalid and I can't figure out why.. I moved the parameters to a variable because somebody suggested that might work but I also tried

Robocopy "$StartLocation" "$EndLocation" /SEC /E /XX /MINLAD:1 /MOV /A-:SH /XF "*FULL*.bak"

Keep getting this error

Below is my shoddy code

PARAM($StartLocation="L:\FakeLocation",

$EndLocation="\\ThisIsA\FakeLocation\ButThereAreNo\Spaces",

$Job='1')

$Options = "/SEC /E /XX /MINLAD:1 /MOV /A-:SH /XF ""*FULL*.bak"""

$Options2 = "/SEC /E /XX /MINLAD:7 /MOV /A-:SH"

$Options3 = "/SEC /E /XX /MINLAD:1 /MOV /A-:SH"

IF ($JOB='1')

{

Robocopy "$StartLocation" "$EndLocation" $Options

Robocopy "$StartLocation" "$EndLocation" $Options2

}

IF ($JOB='2')

{

Robocopy "$StartLocation" "$EndLocation" $Options3

}

 

Robocopy infinite recursion

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

Try running the /zb command from the article
Robocopy for the Access Denied error and check if this helps.

If you are still facing any issues, then I would suggest you to post your query in

Robocopy command is not recognized

Well, that's good news! It tells you there is nothing wrong with robocopy itself. Now please let's have a screenshot of this sequnce:

1. Press the Windows key + R
2. Type cmd.exe and press Enter.
   
   You should get a black frame. The prompt should read C:\Windows\System32
3. Type echo %path% and press Enter.
