Robocopy and hidden files
Hello,
I try to copy a folder without "thumbs.db and office temporary files.
Here the command line :
robocopy C:\Folder_A D:\Folder_B /mir /r:0 /w:0 /XF thumbs.db ~$*.*
This is very annoying because these files always appear.
May you help me ?
Thank you !

- Not sure what your question is, the command-line seems ok and you can't stop those files from appearing 🙂

Hi Harm_Veenstra,
thank you for replying. I finally found the reason why temporary files appeared.
In Robocopy command , I initially put "/a-:sh" as argument. So it was wrong.
I decided delete all backuped files and did it again with command "C:\Folder_A D:\Folder_B /mir /r:0 /w:0".
Now all is alrignt. No temporary files got copied.
Best regards,
Math
