Windows - Automatic copying of a backup file

Issue

• The first phase is managed by a backup software that creates a backup file in a folder like C\**\accounting\BACKUP\.
• Once this is done, I want to have an automatic copy the contents of folder to another folder that is located on a PC on the network.

Solution

• Make use of Robocopy, the command line utility from microsoft.
• It is very simple to use, create a .bat file as below:

  • robocopy.exe \\Source directory \\Target directory / mir 

• Put in the file in the same folder as robocopy ..
