ROBOCOPY - Microsoft Community


i have been running robocopy under windows 8 long time without problems. now, of sudden, i keep getting error robocopy cannot find backup_log.txt file, though quite visible in c: tree directory. following bat file have been using:-

robocopy z:\     f:\backup

robocopy z:\identities        f:\backup\identities /e /mir /np /z /tee /log:backup_log.txt
robocopy z:\library           f:\backup\library /e /mir /np /z /tee /log+:backup_log.txt
robocopy z:\ex_members        f:\backup\ex_members /e /mir /np /z /tee /log+:backup_log.txt
robocopy z:\magazine_index    f:\backup\magazine_index /e /mir /np /z /tee /log+:backup_log.txt
robocopy z:\venues            f:\backup\venues /e /mir /np /z /tee /log+:backup_log.txt
robocopy z:\members           f:\backup\members /e /mir /np /z /tee /log+:backup_log.txt
robocopy z:\caths events      f:\backup\caths events /e /mir /np /z /tee /log+:backup_log.txt
robocopy z:\company logos     f:\backup\company logos /e /mir /np /z /tee /log+:backup_log.txt
robocopy z:\equipment         f:\backup\equipment /e /mir /np /z /tee /log+:backup_log.txt

it is my understanding last switch on first line sets log file, , last switch on of subsequent lines adds files have changed since last backup. if i delete last switch on lines, robocopy works ok, backs files, , not have changed since last backup.

can offer advice on whether i have wrong in bat file above?

hello richard,

this concern bit complex answered here in microsoft answers forums. best if have posted technet forums audiences more familiar concern.
