    RoboCopy with /np switch still lists all ignored files


    I have a bat file to move a small number of PDFs to a different folder with many PDFsSwitches: /mov /np /R:5The files are moved but RoboCopy displays every PDF in the receiving folderIs there a switch that will execute the move without displaying every not matched pdf?

    :)

    Robocopy and /ETA switch


    I have a few batch scripts to backup or restore files, and for some of them, I have the /ETA switch in them as they will move some larger files. In W7, It would always give the time to transfer, but in Win10 (x64), this switch doesn't seem to do anything. When I do Robocopy /? it lists the ETA switch, but nothing happens.

    My question is does anyone know if this eliminated this switch in W10? Anyone know of anyways to get it back (will robocopy from W7 work on W10 you think?)

    Is there a way for Robocopy to ignore file copy errors?

    I am trying to backup files from a disk that is probably going bad. I've already run "chkdsk" on it, so now my old CRC errors are now "file unreadable" errors.

    I can't find any combination of the /R and /W switches that would permit errors to be ignored. It would make sense for /W:0 to mean this - why would you specify a zero second wait time? But, right now /W:0 is just another way to say "Make my log file infinite
    size"

    Is there any other robocopy option that can do this?

    RoboCopy with /np switch still lists all ignored files

    Robocopy switches

    Hello -- one of the many switches that robocopy has is /xf -- to exclude file(s) that are to copy (not) copied --- the help (robocopy | Microsoft Learn) note that I can specify "wildcards
    * and ? for the filename ---

    So I specified the option

    /xf foo.*

    and I got a error that this option was invalid

    Strictly speaking is the help noted that the filename, ie the part of the file identifier before the '.' can have the wildcard and not

    the file extension/type?

    Thanks in advance
