acopy indeed can copy them, but it can't be used in virtual environments such as VPC. Below is its self-description:

Complete Copy Program V2.3 Author: Mo Guofang @ Nanning, Guangxi, China E-mail: MGF2001@163.NET
This program can completely copy files and directories, including their long filenames and attributes. You don't have to boot into WINDOWS
to fully copy a directory. Suppose your WINDOWS directory is C:\WINDOWS, you only need to run
ACOPY /C C:\WINDOWS to create a directory structure file for your C:\WINDOWS, then burn it to a CD in 8+3 filename
format. Later you can copy the WINDOWS on the CD back to the hard disk and use it at any time. Isn't installing the sys-
tem this way very fast? This method is different from GHOST: when GHOST restores, it will damage the entire partition, while ACOPY will not
damage the original contents in the partition. It is just a copy tool more powerful than XCOPY!
If you are using my program, please send me an E-mail. I want to know where my program has reached and how many
people are using it, thank you!
Note: This program can only run under real MS-DOS. It cannot run under WINDOWS or under the MSDOS
mode inside WINDOWS, otherwise it may damage your target directory, remember this!!! Also, FAT12/FAT16 partitions can-
not copy the root directory, only subdirectories.
Usage: ACOPY source directory target directory
/C Do not copy, only create a directory structure file for the source directory
