Hi, All,

I would like to write a batch file to create a new Macrium Reflect backup Image. Could something along the following lines be created?

( 1 ) Purge the contents of E:\My Backups

ECHO Deleting Old Image
ECHO Image Deleted

( 2 ) Execute E:\Definition Files\My Backup.xml

When completed,

( 3 ) Execute E:\Definition Files\Replicator

Ted.

E:\Definition Files\Replicator

Is that the app which does the backup?

Yes, Karen's Replicator is one of the backup programmes. The other one is Macrium Reflect which creates a backup Image. Karens Replicator does a copy-type backup of my Data partition and then copies the lot to my USB backup drive.

At the risk of sounding pedantic a batch file does just what you could do by typing in commands. It does other stuff that you can't do manually.

One line of my vackup bat looks like this:

xcopy c:\temp e:\bak\TFILES\ /s/r/y/d/c
