I have setup a bat file to copy my files to the linkstation. As Below:

Robocopy "C:\Users\User\Documents\Janine" "B:\Documents\Janine" /MIR /E /SEC

But when it gets to certain files it says access denied. How do I get it to copy these files with permissions...

Hi,

Which file is causing issues?

Try this:

Code: 
Robocopy C:\Users\User\Documents\Janine B:\Documents\Janine /MIR /E /COPYALL

Make sure that the file is not actually in use. For example, an Outlook PST file if opened will cause it to not be able to copy. I have to have Outlook shut down when I run my backup jobs.

Thanks for your help Golden I made things easier by focusing on the files that I want backed up... But, the problem was locking up on My music folder for which no file exists as I don't keep music files on the Documents section....

Thanks Golden I am in the middle of looking it over. But, what I want to know is now I've got the bat file to run it shows the GUI and I don't want this. I was recommended on another site to Run as : SYSTEM in the Task Scheduler it then changed to the NT/Authority System is this correct? Will it work as I have tried it and it don't seem to work cos it has not copied a certain file...Named piggyback..;)

I've just tried it and it runs an error (0x10) as NT Authority SYSTEM
Also as ADMINISTRATOR it runs the code 2147943731
trying but not getting anywhere at the mo.

Hi,

Try using the /njh and the /njs switches.

This is what they mean:

/njh : no job header
/njs : no job summary

So is the task successfully running now or not? There seem to be two issues here. You've said it didn't work at first, but that you finally got it to and just wanted to get rid of the GUI. Now that you've got the commands to get rid of the GUI, you're showing that the task doesn't run successfully. So what exactly is the current state of this?

Is the task set to be run "Hidden"?

I am not the best explainer on the planet...Sorry
The Task does not run (1x10) error in the task scheduler.
The console window still shows even with either /njh or /njs.

Hi,

The best thing I can suggest for the console Window is to create a shortcut to the .BAT file, and then edit the properties of the shortcut such that it runs in MINIMISE mode. See image below.

Golden

Sorry Golden I at first did not quite understand what you meant but now I have made the shortcut used minimized properties and it still appeared as a window. Strange eh?

Hi,

Thats because you are trying to edit the properties of the .BAT file - you need to create a SHORTCUT to the .BAT file, and then edit the properties of the SHORTCUT.

Golden
