Question : XCopy command leaves folder hidden

Hi All,

I'm trying to use xcopy to copy the contents of one drive to another. I browse to the destination drive and then into the folder that I want to put the files in using the command prompt and then xcopy the contents of the drive that I want using  xcopy d: /c /e  . It appears to be working fine other than that the folder becomes hidden the minute the copy command is issued. The files are all copied over okay, and everything works other than the folder and contents being hidden. I've had a look at the help and modified my command to xcopy d: /c /e /i /k /r , but it still does the same. Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Answer : XCopy command leaves folder hidden

Interesting.  Try the following

Either

xcopy d:\*.* /c /e

or

xcopy d:\*.* /c /e /i /k /r

Usually I'd use something like

xcopy d:\*.* /s /e /c /h /r /k
