> the process its donde and run but do not copy nothing

It works here.

Since you are using the /a switch, this means files must have the archive attribute set. Else, they are not copied.

Also, it copies files with today's date, i.e. 2/4/16

> i want to overwrite the file if exist an older one?
It will overwrite older files.

It will not match file existences. e.g. If today, it copies file1.txt. Then tomorrow, you erase file1.txt from the source, the copy from yesterday will still be there. If you do not want this to happen, use the /mir switch. This will "mirror" the source.

come on you guys
please the sintax line

what you min mirror the source?

See my prior post: ID: 41449454

got it
do nothing any way, w: is clear now and not today files added
regards

think i got it

robocopy.exe D:\ w:\ /MIR /a /r:1 /w:1 /maxage:1

Are you running robocopy in a CMD window?
From that same window, can you manually...
- Make a folder using MKDIR W:\test1
- Copy any file using COPY WhateverFilename W:\

it copy the hole dir structure with today files  or not,
is any way to tell it copy only the dirs that contain files maxage:1?
