If you have a path which includes spaces you can provide them to robocopy's /log switch like so: /log:"c:\path to a file\robocopy.log" windows robocopy share|improve this question edited Dec 16 '11 at 15:37 asked Dec 15 '11 at 21:44 slm 3,512113248 Works for me. Does it perhaps show a more detailed error at the top? –Carko Dec 15 '11 at 22:01 Are you running that command in the context of a script instead of directly at the command line. Perhaps something else is adding some kind of escaping? –Zoredache Dec 15 '11 at 22:09 The error message suggests that the initial quote marks are before rather than after the colon; are you sure the command you were trying to run is as shown? –Harry Johnston Dec 16 '11 at 3:12 I so sorry, I had a typo in the path. Majorily embarrassed. Thanks for everyone's prompt help! What's the procedure, should I delete this question? Or can I rephrase it and add an answer showing that you can put quotes around the argument to /log switch of robocopy? –slm Dec 16 '11 at 15:25 No reason to delete @slm. If one of the above comments helped you find the problem, ask them to post it as an answer, and then mark the answer correct. If the issue was something else entirely, write your own answer and mark it as the answer so future searchers will know to check that if they have a similar problem. –music2myear Dec 16 '11
