Copying one directory from one hard drive to another hard drive in Windows
xp

In the old days, it was very simple to write a batch file and copy one
directory from one hard drive to another hard drive. How can I do this in
Windows XP? Thank you.

The same way.

From the Start Menu, select RUN, then enter CMD and click ok.

Now to copy the folder:

xcopy c:\source_folder d:\destination_folder /s/e

You can also type:

xcopy /?

for help on using XCOPY.
