I am trying to develop a batch file, which deletes user profiles. In our profile directory there are four user profile folders, which must not be deleted but all the rest need to be deleted. I am trying to create a batch file that copies the four folders to a new directory and then deletes the rest of the folders in the original directory. So I am wondering in Windows NT and 2000 is there a command that actually deletes folders and subfolders? And is there a command that Copies actual folders from one destination to another? If not is there a command that copies files from subfolders within folders. Finally is there a command which can create new folders? Thank you very much for any help, Matt

MS omitted a DELTREE command from NT and W2K, but I found a link here which might help. There are commands to make & copy folders - type HELP at a command prompt. MD makes a directory, XCOPY copies files & folders.
