  Create a custom backup tool with Vista’s Robocopy
Time: 00:08 EST/05:08 GMT | News Source: TechRepublic | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

If you’re a conscientious computer user, chances are that you’ve used the Backup and Restore Center’s Complete PC Backup to create an image file of your Vista hard disk and you use the Windows Backup to backup your data files on a regular schedule. However, you may like to have an additional copy of your data files just to be on the safe side. While you can easily do so by copying the Documents folder to an external hard drive via drag and drop, that can be a tedious operation.

Fortunately, you can simplify your additional backup operation in Microsoft Windows Vista by using a tool called Robocopy. As you may know, Robocopy has been part of the Windows Resource Kit since Windows NT 4.0 days. However, Microsoft updated Robocopy with some extra features designed for Vista and decided to make it a regular part of the Windows Vista operating system. While this is a good thing in that it is readily accessible to all, there is a catch — Robocopy is a command line tool and its power is tucked away in more than 80 switches.
