I want to make a .bat file that when opened will copy a folder and all it contains into another folder on another partition. Here is exactly what I am trying to do:
Copy C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop\Документи and all it contains to D:\Backup. I have tried with many xcopy commands but without result. Thanks.
I launched the command prompt with /k and saw this
which made me think there is a problem with the font. I installed new font that should fix this (YGP_NT) but I am having the same problem (yes, I changed it from the cmd Properties, edited the TrueTypeFont with regedit and restarted the PC). I can write in cyrillic in the cmd if that can help.

Type "xcopy", "source", "destination" /t /e in the Command Prompt window. Instead of “ source ,” type the path of the folder hierarchy you want to copy. Instead of “ destination ,” enter the path where you want to store the copied folder structure. Press “Enter” on your keyboard.
To copy a directory in MS-DOS, use the xcopy command.
Make sure the Enable Ctrl key shortcuts option is checked. You can also check the Use Ctrl+Shift+C/V as Copy/Paste option. Click OK to save the setting. Then you should be able to use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V to copy and paste in Command Prompt window.
xcopy "%userprofile%\Desktop\Документи" "D:\Backup\" /s/h/e/k/f/c should work, assuming that your language setting allows Cyrillic (or you use Unicode fonts in the console).
