Hi,

I've got a batch file that I run once a week that copies certain files to a backup directory.
Now the thing is some of these files are very large (video edits) and I don't want to copy them if they haven't been modified since the last backup.
Is there a command I can use to compare the modified dates?
Would save me a great deal of pain instead of having to just overwrite everything.
Another thing though... I set folders to be copied. Can I do it so it checks every file within that folder instead of having to list the files individually (which would be impossible for some folders)?

Yes, it's Windows, but I would definately prefer a batch file I can run instead of this stupid app.

SyncToy v2.0 Beta


There is a cmdline version called synctoycmd which takes a parameter

"c:\Program Files\SyncToy 2.0 Beta\SyncToyCmd.exe" -R"folderpairname"
