Well, tbh, haven't looked at the logging of it since I'd just use Beyond Compare to do a directory comparison.
The verbose switch does show skipped files plus you can output to a log file, (console, log file, or both).Code: Text [Select]
: :: Logging Options : :: /L :: List only - don't copy, timestamp or delete any files. /X :: report all eXtra files, not just those selected. /V :: produce Verbose output, showing skipped files. /TS :: include source file Time Stamps in the output. /FP :: include Full Pathname of files in the output. /BYTES :: Print sizes as bytes. /NS :: No Size - don't log file sizes. /NC :: No Class - don't log file classes. /NFL :: No File List - don't log file names. /NDL :: No Directory List - don't log directory names. /NP :: No Progress - don't display percentage copied. /ETA :: show Estimated Time of Arrival of copied files. /LOG:file :: output status to LOG file (overwrite existing log). /LOG+:file :: output status to LOG file (append to existing log). /UNILOG:file :: output status to LOG file as UNICODE (overwrite existing log). /UNILOG+:file :: output status to LOG file as UNICODE (append to existing log). /TEE :: output to console window, as well as the log file. /NJH :: No Job Header. /NJS :: No Job Summary. /UNICODE :: output status as UNICODE.
Main reason I guess for using robocopy is that it can copy pretty much everything to do with a file, NTFS ACLS, Owner, auditing, and probably the ADS.
Could also multi-thread it, (/MT:x), but probably not the thing to do on a suspect HDD.-4wd (May 10, 2018, 12:36 AM)
Hello there,
Im new here. First I would thank you for this nice site and the tools and advise you provide to the others.
I also wanted to suggest a freeware tool dubbed Robomirror, which basically is a GUI for the robocopy tool.

Cheers.
