More about batch files

[Dingbat]

Hi Guys,

I have a small batch file that will do a backup of a directory to a DVD. This workd great when it is adding new files to the backup.

Can anyone help with the switches to remove deleted files from the backup?

The batch is listed below:

xcopy f:\*.*\ h:\ /y /d /s

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Sorry but XCOPY doesn't offer any switches that'll do that for you, it's a rather limited tool for anything beyond the most modest of backup capabilities.
