Why can't XCOPY copy directories together?

Adding the /s parameter allows copying subdirectories together

But the root directory is still not okay. Every time I copy, I first create a directory on another disk and then copy, only then can it work! I don't know if I didn't read the parameters clearly!

Adding parameters still doesn't work.

There is no situation that I haven't seen, and I really want to experience it.

xcopy /e /q /i /h /r /y c:\source folder d:\target folder
It works on my machine, XP2

The target doesn't need to exist in advance, relying on the /i parameter.

I tried it, but it still doesn't work.郁闷. . . . .

Can't be? /i Should be no problem ah

xcopy "source directory name" "destination directory name" /i
If you want to copy subdirectories together, add /s at the end

/I If the target does not exist and more than one file is being copied,
then it is assumed that the target must be a directory.

This system explains it like this: xcopy "source directory name" "destination directory name" /i

So, is the destination directory name created by oneself or the same as when I copy? What if it doesn't exist?

The goal can be the same as copy even if it doesn't exist in advance

Agree

No need to create it in advance, this command will create it automatically

I made this under the command line of XP. xcopy d:\th e:\ /s and press Enter. Copy the th folder and its files on drive D to drive E. Only files are copied but folders are not.

xcopy d:\th e:\th /s /i
