Yes, the command is copy. I believe it is: copy c: e:. This will copy all files in the C drive to the E drive.

It's xcopy ; the advantage xcopy has over the copy command is that it copies the entire tree including subdirectories and files, it is a more powerful tool that has a number of options to suit your needs, everything from excluding non-empty directories to copying system & hidden files.
To learn about any console command the best option is to open a Command line interface (START > RUN > cmd) and type Code:
xcopy /? Alternately, you can use the windows help and search for xcopy. |

The Freeware xxcopy for personal use is even more powerful than xcopy. Dave
