Command to move password protected folders and files

Creating a new server and trying to copy all the documents and folders from old server to new server, some documents are password protected along with having some password protected folder, is there a windows command that can copy all of those files and folders.
Replaced the "VMware" Zone with the "M$ OS", "2003 Server" and "2008 Server" Zones.

I tried using Robocopy and the copy stopped on Password protected folders and file, I tried XCOPY as well with no luck, rindi the servers are on the same domain and I am an administrator of both servers, no third party utilites were used to password protect the files, it looks like most of the security was removed from some files and folders to restrict access.

I tried taking ownership of the entire directory and pushing permisions all the way down so I was in full control of lthe entire directory, still stopped though on some file, ie word documents, saying that I needed to give myself permission, did that and was able to get that directory copied, any ideas how to make the process a little less time consuming?
