Have you tried these options? RoboCopy %Source% %Destination% /MT:20 /E /ZB /COPYALL /R:1 /W:1 that usually gets most everything I've ever tried copying. Then again, copying registry hives is very different from copying "regular" files ... the "/ZB" (copy in restartable abd backup mode" can be really helpful.
Interesting. /ZB has thus far escaped me, I'll give it a try. From above: /MT[:n] :: Do multi-threaded copies with n threads (default 8). n must be at least 1 and not greater than 128. This option is incompatible with the /IPG and /EFSRAW options. Redirect output using /LOG option for better performance. /E :: copy subdirectories, including Empty ones. /ZB :: use restartable mode; if access denied use Backup mode. /COPYALL :: COPY ALL file info (equivalent to /COPY:DATSOU). /R:n :: number of Retries on failed copies: default 1 million. /W:n :: Wait time between retries: default is 30 seconds. What I use, with other flags as needed on a per command basis: set RCOPTIONS1=/MIR /Z /R:2 /W:5 set RCOPTIONS2=/NFL /NDL REM /MIR :: MIRror a directory tree (equivalent to /E plus /PURGE). REM Requires BOTH /NFL /NDL to make it quiet! REM /Z :: copy files in restartable mode. REM /R:n :: number of Retries on failed copies: default 1 million. REM /W:n :: Wait time between retries: default is 30 seconds. REM /NFL : No File List - don't log file names. REM /NDL : No Directory List - don't log directory names. REM /J :: copy using unbuffered I/O (recommended for large files).
