Windows 7: How to copy a file from 1 pc to another pc in network using batch file

Help me make a batch file that copies a file from one computer to another computer in a network...



PC1 = Source
PC2 = Destination

I want to copy a file from PC1's Drive E: to PC2's Drive E:

Yes I want to copy files from PC1 to PC2 over the network...

PC1's Drive E:\Online Games\Battle of Immortals\Battle of the Immortals
to
PC2's Drive E:\Online Games\Battle of Immortals\Battle of the Immortals

why not share the file in your source system and get it trough the network
see these:
HomeGroup - Link your Online ID and Share Files
Homegroup - Change File and Folder Sharing Settings
Sharing and Permissions

if there is any problem use team viewer to do so, get it from teamviewer.com

Hi there
This is TOTAL overkill for what the OP wants

Here's the CORRECT answer

get into notepad editor and enter statements like this with all the files you want to copy one line for each
and then save the file as either a cmd or bat file

then get into a command prompt, change to the directory where you've stored the cmd or bat file and type the name in

your batch file should run.

Note you can use wild cards such as d*gshy*e for example

have a look at a few more DOS cmds like XCOPY as this might be better for what you want.

copy C:\source.txt C:\destination.txt


the first C is the source directory -- the 2nd C is the target directory -- if you are on a network the directory will be something like \\mynetwork_directory\subdirectory\filename.

If you are lucky enough to have mounted the network directory as a local drive say Q: then instead of the network file directory (the \\part) you can simply use a drive letter Q: for example.

Have a look at this tutorial for more information on commands and batch files.

and then do what --- ?? don't think you've answered the question here.

I refer you back to my previous post in this thread.

BTW on addition to my first post BOTH computers need to be on the LAN that you want to copy the file(s) from.

If only 1 computer is available or connected to the lan then the easiest way is to copy the file(s) on to a USB stick with windows explorer from computer 1 --then copy the USB stick data to computer 2.

(another easy way is often to compress the files with 7-z or similar then EMAIL to the relevant computers -- change the .exe to something like .zzz as a lot of email systems won't allow sending or receiving .exe files --especially office ./ corporate lans).

thanks mmkarimi... but the reason i want to make a batch file is to help my brother update the online games in 20 computers by overwriting or copying big files in one click from 1 source computer...
instead of turning on all 20 computers and updating all online games, he'll just have to update one computer and just copy the update or overwrite the old files in all 19 computers...

but I'm still insist on my answer, just share the folder,
go to the destination computer, type://SourceComputerName,then type the user/pass and get your files

the most simplest solution would be teamviewer and it always work without any network problems. you can even do much more than copping files

so use sky drive, it gives you 7Gb shared information in the web, you upload your files and it will sync all your computer at ones

Hi there
the Batch solution then -- that's how to do it easily

I have to agree that a batch file will be your quickest solution. just make sure that the drives are shared first.

parman - i need to share my drive E: and the folders to be copied?
