I am new to scripting and created a basic file that will backup, as copies, certain directories and/or subfolders but need to modify it to backup to a specific folder by name of the week day, ie Monday, based on the day of the week, ie Mon. I have automated this to avoid employee forgetfulness.

I saw some posts that were said to work but need help understanding them. Here is my file:

:BackupStartMessage01
SLEEP 2
ECHO+
ECHO+
ECHO The backup process has now been started...
SLEEP 3

:Log Backup-Start
@ECHO %date% Backup STARTED at %time% on workstation %computername% >> F:\Backups\Division01backup\backuplog.log

:Backup01
ECHO+
ECHO Now starting first process!
ECHO+
ECHO A | Xcopy "X:\Box01" "F:\Server01\Division01\Folder01" /S /E /V
ECHO+

:Endof01 Backup01
SLEEP 3
ECHO Folder backup has been completed!
ECHO+
ECHO+

:Backup02
SLEEP 2
ECHO A | XCOPY "X:\storage\Box02" "F:\Backups\Division01LBACKUP\Folder02" /E /S /V
ECHO+
SLEEP 2
ECHO+
ECHO Folder backup has been completed!
ECHO+
ECHO+

:Complete
SLEEP 4
ECHO+
ECHO+
ECHO BACKUP PROCESS IS NOW COMPLETE!

:Log Backup-End
ECHO A log file is now being creted
SLEEP 2
ECHO %date% Backup ENDED at %time% on workstation %computername% >> F:\Backups\Division01backup\backuplog.log

:END
