Incremental backup data with one. Def

Save your important data before formatting for example ...
At the launch of the 1st batch, it saves all the files and folders, for against if you restart the batch 2 weeks later, it saves the changes, very effective.

In fact in the example above, against, I save my file "docs" that lies at the root of C: partition to my D: in the "backup" and my favorites ( "% USERPROFILE%" is the variable of "Documents and Settings \ username"). The switches E / H / R / Y / I / D used to copy the system files hidden ,.... For more information, open the command prompt (cmd.exe) and type xcopy /?.

First, open the notepad and enter this:

Code:

---

@ echo off
  xcopy C: \ Docs D: \ Backup \ Docs / E / H / R / Y / I / D
  xcopy "% USERPROFILE% \ Favorites D: \ Backup \ Favorites / E / H / R / Y / I / D
  break

---

Then, save the text into a file named with the. Def (eg sauvegarde.bat) and selecting "All types of files."

Suffice it to launch this file to copy data from C to D.
