Using Robocopy to rapidly mirror directories

Using RoboCopy is as simple as hitting your Windows Start Menu, then  typing cmd and hit enter; Then just use the RoboCopy commands noted below.

RoboCopy can be used to mirror directories to an external drive, so you can keep backups, in sync with your source folders, so if you delete something, that deletion can be mirrored to your backup destination.

Examples:

robocopy c:\MikesStuff m:\MikesStuff\ /MIR /R:0 /W:1

#Mirror directories
robocopy c:\MikesStuff m:\MikesStuff\ /MIR

#USING SPACES in Directories
robocopy "C:\Users\mike\Google Drive\Some Folder" "M:\MikesBackups\Some Folder" /S /L

Here's using /XD to exclude directories:
robocopy d:\ f:\ /MIR /R:0 /W:0 /XD "$RECYCLE.BIN" "System Volume Information"
