# robocopy
> Robust File and Folder Copy.
> By default files will only be copied if the source and destination have different time stamps or different file sizes.
> More information: <https://learn.microsoft.com/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/robocopy>.

- Copy all files and subdirectories, including empty ones:
`robocopy {{path o\source_directory}} {{path o\destination_directory}} /E`
- Mirror/Sync a directory, deleting anything not in source and include all attributes and permissions:
`robocopy {{path o\source_directory}} {{path o\destination_directory}} /MIR /COPYALL`
- Copy all files and subdirectories, excluding source files that are older than destination files:
`robocopy {{path o\source_directory}} {{path o\destination_directory}} /E /XO`
- List all files 50 MB or larger instead of copying them:
`robocopy {{path o\source_directory}} {{path o\destination_directory}} /MIN:{{52428800}} /L`
- Allow resuming if network connection is lost and limit retries to 5 and wait time to 15 sec:
`robocopy {{path o\source_directory}} {{path o\destination_directory}} /Z /R:5 /W:15`
