Program, so converting a *.bat to *.exe might be a problem. Main() entry is executed, it will invoke other functions inside itself like a regular I made a Batch program to copy some files to system32 folder but when I convert that Batch script to *.exe, I am unable to copy those files to system32 folder, What is the resolutionīased on what I know, an exe has entry point which is a This would be an excellent way to automatically backup a set of folders as part of a scheduled task.Unable to Copy any files to C:\Windows\SYstem32 using Batch Script.
After that you can run the incremental backup with the /incremental switch. The first time that you run this command you will need to use /full instead of /incremental, or else you will get an error because the state file hasn’t been created yet.
Hobocopy /incremental /statefile=d:\lastbackup.dat /y /r c:\users\geek\ d:\backups\ Hobocopy /incremental /statefile=filename /y /r c:\directoryname\ d:\backupdirectory\
#EMCOPY COMMANDS FULL#
Only copy files that have changed since the last full copy. This flag specifies the file that contains the last backup information. This works similarly to utilities like rsync, except hobocopy stores the last backup date in a file that you need to specify on the command line. Hobocopy also supports backing up files incrementally, so it will only copy the files that have changed since the last backup. Using HoboCopy to Incrementally Backup a Drive Realistically any files in your user directory shouldn’t have this problem. At the end you should have a nearly perfect copy of the directory… if there are any permission errors you’ll be alerted to files that didn’t copy. This command will likely take a very long time to complete, so you might want to take a nap or something. Hobocopy /full /skipdenied /y /r c:\users\geek\ d:\backups\ Let’s go with the same example, I want to backup my entire user directory to d:\backups\, so I’d use this command: Hobocopy /full /skipdenied /y /r c:\directoryname\ d:\backupdirectory\ Ignore any access denied messages because of permission errors. For this, we’ll want to add a couple of command-line arguments. Using HoboCopy to Backup an Entire DirectoryĪ much more useful task would be to backup my entire User folder, probably to an external hard drive for safekeeping. 1 files (606.45 MB, 1 directories) copied, 7 files skipped a full copy from c:\users\geek\mail to d:\backups\ Copied directory Backup successfully completed. Here’s the syntax that I’d use:Ĭ:\> hobocopy c:\users\geek\mail\ d:\backups\ Outlook.pst Hobocopy c:\directoryname\ d:\backupdirectory\ įor example, I want to backup my c:\users\geek\mail\outlook.pst file to d:\backups\outlook.pst.
#EMCOPY COMMANDS WINDOWS#
Note: on Windows Vista you will need to launch an Administrator mode command prompt by right-clicking on the Command prompt in the start menu and choosing Run as Administrator. We can use it to backup a single file by passing in the filename argument at the end. The syntax is a little weird, because HoboCopy is really meant to be used for backing up an entire set of folders.
