[Sreenu Gantinapalli 2]

Hi Team,

I know how to copy files and folders in Linux usingCreationOption:CRN , but in case of Windows, i don't find such option to use in send / recv command.

Please help me with this. Thanks

Hi,

 

Are you strictly needing to use the CLI Windows offers UI so I doubt there would be an easy way to do it from CLI. Another hint is to use PowerShell instead of CMD. Powershell usually supports a multitude of bash commands.

From native Powershell commands, I know that copy-item keyword will achieve the same as CP or CP with -r when put into a 'for' loop. You can check out the StackOverflow answer here:

Hope this helps.

I wanted to know, is there any options available on Windows MFT, because later I would automate the files, folders and it's subfolders between two windows systems using DNI.
