Hello,

I have the above script which is supposed to transfer files I have been working on over, say, the last 24 hours from a Win 7 PC to a Win XP PC with which it is networked in a Homegroup - both are wireless and use the same router.
This will SAVE me from having to copy and paste each and every file I use in Win 7 in a day to my XP PC.

If I wanted to transfer, say, a Visual Studio project, WebSite2, which is here:

C:\Users\Steve\Documents\Visual Studio 2013\WebSites\WebSite2 to a shared folder on my XP PC, how would I customise the script above to copy and paste the RELEVANT files from Win 7 to Win XP, and would I type in that script daily in Command Prompt to perform the task?

Thanks.

High1Somebody else will help with your script.

I stopped using batch files a long time ago. There are some many utilities out there already do almost anything you can think of. Almost.
I keep my PROJECTS in their own folders or partitions. If I need update my other PC, I use a tool called Sync Toy. It is free from Microsoft and needs .NET framework. First time you use it requires a little work. After that, it does areal quick job of updated either one-way or two-way from and to both PCs. It only does what is needed. Errors do not FREEZE it.


Thanks for that, Geek.

I'll take a look at the link you kindly posted.

High1Oh Oh,
