Xcopy - Copy files and folders
XCOPY
Copy files and/or directory trees to another folder. XCOPY is similar to the COPY command except that it has additional switches to specify both the source and destination in detail.XCOPY is particularly useful when copying files from CDROM to a hard drive, as it will automatically remove the read-only attribute.Syntax

of a SOURCE file, then that file will be excluded.

all files underneath the directory obj or all files with the
.obj extension respectively. Copy Options
