    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

    :)

    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.

  3. Batch and Xcopy

    Try moving /E and /Y to after the paths...

    @xcopy "C:\Users\PVTCaboose1337\Documents\School" "M:/School" /E /Y

    It must always be:

    xcopy source destination [options]

    xcopy not working in windows 10

    I've solved my problem with xcopy and in a strange way it turned out to be about permissions. As administrator I was backing up userx usery to bakx baky and it turned out I didn't have permission to access userx and usery. After giving myself permission,
    xcopy worked as it should. Either this worked differently in 8.1 or the conversion to 10 changed file permissions. The error message <file not found - "*.*"> seems entirely spurious.
