Hello experts, <br />
<br />
I am looking for a cmd command to copy one root folder to a destination folder.<br />
I was thinking to a robocopy command but if powershell can cover the need I am in.<br />
<br />
Requirements: <br />
<br />
Destination folder contains multiple subfolders, they contains “.txt” and “.log” ie extensionS. “.txt” and “.log”<br />
They start with the following Prefix: “Import”<br />
The idea is to copy the various subfolder to destination folder and omitting the various files with those extensions and prefix listed bellow<br />
Source folder: C:\Install<br />
Destination folder: C:\New Install<br />
Note: files can be located in different subfolders.<br />
<br />
If you have questions, please contact me.<br />
Thank you very much for your help

CMD &amp; Powershell: copy folders omitting files with extension &amp; prefix

Windows PowerShell is a task automation and configuration management framework from Microsoft, consisting of a command-line shell and associated scripting language built on the .NET Framework. PowerShell provides full access to the Component Object Model (COM) and Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI), enabling administrators to perform administrative tasks on both local and remote Windows systems as well as WS-Management and Common Information Model (CIM) enabling management of remote Linux systems and network devices.

Powershell

Batch files are text files containing a script of commands that are executed by the command interpreter on DOS, OS/2 and Windows systems. Most commonly, they are used to perform a series of functions that are repeated -- copying a set of files created daily with one step, for example.
