Hieronder een voorbeeld om de map "utils" van de C schijf naar de D schijf te kopiëren in de Backup map:
Nog beter is het om het commando robocopy te gebruiken:

waarbij:

/s = copieer ook de sub mappen, maar niet de lege mappen
/MIR = Mirror (spiegel) een directorie, waarbij de bronmap leidend is, de doelmap wordt hierop aangepast
/R:10 = probeer nogmaals, maximaal 10x
/W:10 = wacht 10 seconden om het opnieuw te proberen

English

ROBOCOPY source destination [file [file]...] [options]

source Source Directory (drive:\path or \\server\share\path)
destination Destination Dir (drive:\path or \\server\share\path)

/COPY:copyflag[s] What to COPY for files (default is /COPY:DAT).
(copyflags : D=Data, A=Attributes, T=Timestamps).
(S=Security=NTFS ACLs, O=Owner info, U=aUditing info).
/DCOPY:T COPY Directory Timestamps.
/SEC Copy files with SECurity (equivalent to /COPY:DATS).
/COPYALL COPY ALL file info (equivalent to /COPY:DATSOU).
/NOCOPY COPY NO file info (useful with /PURGE).
/SECFIX FIX file SECurity on all files, even skipped files.
/TIMFIX FIX file TIMes on all files, even skipped files.
/PURGE Delete dest files/dirs that no longer exist in source.
/MIR MIRror a directory tree (equivalent to /E plus /PURGE).
/MOV MOVe files (delete from source after copying).
/MOVE MOVE files AND dirs (delete from source after copying).
/A+:[RASHCNET] Add the given Attributes to copied files.
/A-:[RASHCNET] Remove the given Attributes from copied files.
/CREATE CREATE directory tree and zero-length files only.
/FAT Create destination files using 8.3 FAT file names only.
/256 Turn off very long path (> 256 characters) support.
/MON:n MONitor source; run again when more than n changes seen.
/MOT:m MOnitor source; run again in m minutes Time, if changed.
/RH:hhmm-hhmm Run Hours - times when new copies may be started.
/PF Check run hours on a Per File (not per pass) basis.
/IPG:n Inter-Packet Gap (ms), to free bandwidth on slow lines.
/SL Copy symbolic links versus the target.
/MT[:n] Do multi-threaded copies with n threads (default 8).
n must be at least 1 and not greater than 128.
This option is incompatible with the /IPG and /EFSRAW options.
Redirect output using /LOG option for better performance.

/DST Compensate for one-hour DST time differences.
/XJD eXclude Junction points for Directories.
/XJF eXclude Junction points for Files.

/REG Save /R:n and /W:n in the Registry as default settings.
/TBD Wait for sharenames To Be Defined (retry error 67).

Logging Options
/L List only - don't copy, timestamp or delete any files.
/X Report all eXtra files, not just those selected.
/V Produce Verbose output, showing skipped files.
/TS Include source file Time Stamps in the output.

Job Options
/JOB:jobname Take parameters from the named JOB file.

/QUIT QUIT after processing command line (to view parameters).
/NOSD NO Source Directory is specified.
/NODD NO Destination Directory is specified.
/IF Include the following Files.

Examples
In this first example any .txt file would be copied from the hope directory into the hope2 directory. Whenever you want to copy one or more files and not a complete directory the file must be specified after the destination directory.
In the above example the robocopy command would copy all files (not directories) in the hope directory to the hope2 directory.
In the above example all files and folders (including empty ones) will be copied from the hope directory to the hope2 directory.
This example will mirror what is in c:\hope into c:\hope2 and purge any files in the hope2 directory that do not exist in the hope directory. Use the /mir switch cautiously since it will be deleting files that do not match in the destination directory.
Next, this example would copy any of the files in the hope directory on the network computer named computer to the current computer hope2 directory.
