Is it possible to copy multiple files at once?

<filecopy source='W:\UnAttended\Personal\QuickLaunch\*.*"' target='%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\' />

This attempt failed, and the log says something about wrong syntax.

Is this possible, or do I have to go back using a batfile?

Thanks.

use dircopy.

i believe it would be....

<filecopy source='W:\UnAttended\Personal\QuickLaunch"' target='%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer' />

and you need to rename the source QuickLaunch folder to Quick Launch.

Dircopy copies the directory to the new location, files and all.

Maybe.. It depends on XPlode..
I've been copying the files only before my attempt to make it work with XPlode.

Yeah, I'm using Dircopy also.

What if, like in this case, I'm Dircopy'ing over "Quick Launch" to "%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\".. Will XPlode delete the existing folder BEFORE it copies "Quick Launch" over?

Anyway, if I can't copy a bunch of files with Filecopy, then I think XPlode is missing a "feature". (Which in my case means i have to reorganize my folders, or keep on using batfiles.)

well, FileCopy needs the file to copy, you may want to drop a line to Wraith in the requests or on his bugtracker about adding support for the *.* as he would have to add that to XPlode.

I don't think it will delete the folder as I use it for my quicklaunch and all the default ones are there, and I only copy over 4. Unless they get created when the user is done logging on.

XPlode 1.0.3 has the following syntax for copying files and directories:

 <copy source='%SOURCEPATH%\I386' target='%SYSTEMDRIVE%\I386' mask='*.ac_'  />
 	 <copy source='%SOURCEPATH%\I386\sp1.cab' target='%SYSTEMDRIVE%\I386\sp1.cab' />
 	 <move source='%SYSTEMDRIVE%\I386\' target='%SYSTEMDRIVE%\I586' />
 	 <move source='%SYSTEMDRIVE%\I586\sp1.cab' target='%SYSTEMDRIVE%\I586\sp2.cab' />
 	 <delete source='%SYSTEMDRIVE%\I586' mask='m*.ac_' />
 	 <delete source='%SYSTEMDRIVE%\I586\sp2.cab' />
 	 <delete source='%SYSTEMDRIVE%\I586' />

As you can see, it will allow specific file masking. (Defaults to *.* if no 'mask' attribute it specified.)
Expect a release soon.
