troycicle Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 Is it possible using a batch file to copy a folder from a cd, and put it on your hard drive? I know you can do this with a single file using the copy command, but I can't get it to work using a folder.Would this work?XCOPY /Y /e "D:\$OEM$\$Docs\All Users\Desktop\Snapshots" "%SystemDrive%\Snapshots\"If I put %CDROM% where D: is, and I have my cd in another drive like the E, will the batch file work?
