dont use copy. Use Xcopy with the /s parameter. It works 4 me on Win2K anyways...
try xcopy, think
:)
hehe same time post;)
okay, i used xcopy but forgot the /s thing, thankies guys
no prob;)
XCopy ****ed all my long filenames, any ideas what next? I'v tried ace but it starts sorting and sorting and it takes ages...
xcopy didn't do that. that is the 8.5 dos file type.
that is a dos default.
8.3 :p
Ked, why not just write a program yourself? :)

No i want to copy windows dir, and it says "SHARING VIOLATION" BTW I'm really really really really really really really in a bad mood today so i'm not going to do anything
Actually i'm going to ace the **** and go to sleep
try xcopy32 ... should take care of the long filenames
alright i give that one a try
I don't think you can copy the Windows folder while it's running. You'd need to copy it while it wasn't running.
my xp beta version was killed accidentally :maD: so i had to kill anyone in this room as well :mad: well i don't have any other os than dos to do this in so dos or dos? which one?
XCOPY 32 DIDNT FUXORING WORXOR :MAD:
1. It didn't copy with long filenames :mad:
2. 2/3 of the files was not copied :mad:
:(
FUx00R!
he he oh ya that is what I meant ;)Quote:

how are you copying the dir?
xcopy c:\windows\*.* d:\whatever dir\
if in dos (not dos prompt) that will copy all the files in the windows dir.
Xcopy32 c:\windows h:\win98\windows\ /s
if you want all files then take off /s as that is for system files.
Thats not true...just do Xcopy /? to see all the params. /s copies all subfiles and folders. Of course i have Win 2K...Quote:
