Hello,
I have been successfully using Robocopy for years and after installing Windows 8.1 Pro, my script fails while attempting to copy the Skydrive folders and files on my local HDD. All other files copy correctly.
The error is:
ERROR 1920 (0x00000780) Copying File D:\MyData\SkyDrive\...[filenames]...
I have searched for and seen other threads regarding Skydrive and Robocopy. I am still not clear why HDD local folders and files would fail to be copied.
Due to the SkyDrive fail, I have tried modifying the Robocopy script and the modification does not function as expected. My script is:
robocopy"D:\MyData" "E:\MyData" /E /XD "D:\MyData\SkyDrive\" /MT:64 /ZB /FP /NP /R:5 /W:1 /V /TEE /log:"d:\mydata\Backuplog Daily D to E.xls"
Trying to exclude the SkyDrive folders does not function and Robocopy continues to attempt to copy Skydrive folders/subfolders/files.
I have tried several variations of the /XD switch which also fail.
1) Any idea why local HDD Skydrive folders/files fail to copy?
2) Any idea why the /XD switch fails?
Any suggestion would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Michael Downs
