  • So I am really new to Powershell and just yesterday learned about Robocopy.

    I have been trying to find a solution to this problem:

    I wrote a script in Powershell that is to simulate a «Backup». It  should copy files, using Robocopy, from user specified folders on a server to a user specified location elsewhere.

    Right now, I have been testing it various ways.

    1) One way I tried testing it was mapping the server’s location as a network drive. I currently have it as drive V:.
    Whenever I run the script, I get this error:

    Get-Item: Cannot find drive. A drive with the name ‘V’ does not exist.
    ERROR 3 (0x00000003) Accessing Source Directory V:
    The System cannot find the path specified.

    I’m using Robocopy like this: robocopy $spath $newFolder /COPY:DAT /b

    2) The first time I tried test my script, I was trying to access directly to the server. $spath = \###.###.##.###
    Whenver I tried this, this is the error I got:

    Get-Item : Cannot find path ‘\###.###.##.###’ because it does not exist.
    ERROR 5 (0x00000005) Accessing Source Directory \###.###.##.##
    Access is denied.

    I am running Powershell as an administrator, on the administrator account on this computer (It’s just for testing, but it’s a Windows 7 desktop).

    Any ideas?

  • Honestly not sure why it’s not working for you.. I thought it might be something to do with the hidden share so I tried that and still couldn’t reproduce the problem.

    judging by your screenshot you’re calling your script with a parameter for the file containing the source path so i wrote some .xml files to get the source and dest path from and it still worked o_O so i’m outta ideas!

    the below works perfectly here if thats any help.

    contents of testsourcelist.xml (i know it’s not a valid xml file but i was feeling lazy)

    <sourcePath>\192.168.1.1media0$</sourcePath>
    

    contents of testdestlist.xml

    <destPath>c:hello</destPath>

    contents of test2.ps1

    $sourcelist_filename=$args[0]
    [xml]$sourcelist = Get-Content $sourcelist_filename
    [xml]$destlist = Get-Content testdestlist.xml
    
    $spath = $sourcelist.sourcePath
    $dpath = $destlist.destPath
    $today = Get-Date
    $name = "test"
    $newName = $name + $today.month +$today.day + $today.year
    $newFolder = $dpath + '' +$newName
    robocopy $spath $newFolder /COPY:DAT /b

    command used..

    .test2.ps1 .testsourcelist.xml

    output..

RoboCopy giving error in universal file path

I am conducting some Arduino HID research. I was trying to set my Leo to open powershell and make a back up of all the .pdfs in my Documents folders to a flash drive by volume name.

I want this to be portable to different machines. So a specified file path that includes a username can not be used.

The original script I found is this one.

The Problem I am having is that when I pass the path of C:users$env:usernameDocuments Powershell throws an error stating.

Next i tried removing the $srcDIR parameter and specifying the path in a variable with the new script looking like this:

That failed as well giving me the another path error apparently robocopy is imputing my username twice seen here:

So I edited the last line to include a direct path and no varible.

The output gave a different results that confuses me more than the rest of the issues. Have a look:

The reason why it is so confusing is because these directories that robocopy tried to copy do not exist within my documents folder nor flash drive. C:UsersmeDocuments

C:UsersmeDocumentsMy Music C:UsersmeDocumentsMy Pictures F:My Pictures

So i am completely stumped and came here to ask the pros for some assistance. I have also tried %USERNAME% and %USERPROFILE% in the file path using the same script variations i stated above but that didn’t work either due to robocopy assuming they was part of the actual path name. I.E. C:users%USERPROFILE%Documents

So to conclude I need to be able to plug a named volume flash drive into my pc. Insert my Arduino have it type out a command in CMD, POWERSHELL, or create a .ps1 in notepad but the issue i am having is with the source directory path not being recognized when not using a specific user name in the path which is not possible due to my need to have this portable across machines and users.

Hi All,

Cleaning up after a ransomware event. Thankfully all caught early and good backups in place. To save me restoring a whole drive, I’ve been trying to get robocopy to copy files out of a shadow copy from 1 hour before the event to a new folder. Firstly I subst the shadowcopy folder as Z:. Then I run robocopy commands but it says: The system cannot find the path specified relating the z:. Any help would be greatly appreciated here as the script should take ten minutes to complete vs a nightmare scenario of restoring drives and pulling changed files from backups.

The commands I’ve been using are:

Powershell

subst z: \localhostB$TimestampFolder

# Note that z: drive only shows in explorer if this command is not run as administrator. Also it shows as disconnected in explorer but it be browsed as normal.

robocopy z: x:test *.xls *.xlsx *.doc *.docx /COPYALL /S MAXAGE:MMDDYYYY /R:2 /W:2

# The error is "ERROR 3 (0x00000003) Accessing Source Directory z: The system cannot find the path specified."

Any help is massively appreciated and if it helps my laptop colour is black.

Профиль | Сайт | Отправить PM | Цитировать

Доброго времени суток, господа. Подскажите, мне нужно копировать все содержимое из папки А в папку Б. Копировать открытые файлы или системные и продолжать копирование при ошибке и так далее. Наткнулся на утилиту robocopy. Хотел создать батник и запихнуть его в службы, но вот незадача, при запуске батника пишет вот такую штуку :

Параметры: *.* /S /E /DCOPY:DA /COPY:DAT /PURGE /MIR /Z /R:1000000 /W:30

2020/09/25 12:37:36 ОШИБКА 3 (0x00000003) Доступ к исходной папке C:Users╨Т╨╕╤В╨░╨╗╨╕╨╣Desktop╨а╨░╨▒╨╛╤В╨░╨Ъ╨╛╨┐╨╕╤А╨╛╨▓╨░╨╜╨╕╨╡ ╨┐╨░╨▒╨░╨в╨╡╤Б╤В ╨╛╤В ╤Б╤О╨┤╨░
Системе не удается найти указанный путь.

Вывод, не может найти указанный путь. НО! Если я вставляю тот же код батника просто в CMD, там все прекрасно работает и копируется).

Вот исходный код батника:
robocopy «C:UsersВиталийDesktopРаботаКопирование пабаТест от сюда» «C:UsersВиталийDesktopРаботаКопирование пабаТест сюда» /MIR /Z

Подскажите, где ошибаюсь и почему из батника не работает, а если код вставить в командную строку, все работает.

ERROR 3 (0x00000003) Getting File System — Robocopy

Robocopy Error:
Started : Tuesday, June 28, 2016 10:15:37 AM
2016/06/28 10:15:37 ERROR 3 (0x00000003) Getting File System Type of Destination Z:MyFolder
The system cannot find the path specified.

Solution:
The Solution worked for me is, I have given full path of destination folder instead of giving mapped drive path of destination folder.

Examples (1):
ROBOCOPY E:MyFolder Z:MyFolder /E /ZB /SEC /R:3 /W:3 /TEE /LOG+:C:FileServerCopy.txt

Its failed with above error, because I was using destination shared path as a mapped drive (Z:).

Examples (2):
ROBOCOPY E:MyFolder \myipaddresssharedfolderMyFolder /E /ZB /SEC /R:3 /W:3 /TEE /LOG+:C:FileServerCopy.txt

It worked like charm, because I am using full path of my destination shared folder.


Update: 12/05/2017

IMP Notes: In most common scenario, we get encountered by errors in two conditions:

1. Not using CMD as (Run as Administrator).

What to do? Yes, you should use robocopy command on CMD prompts with «Run as Administrator».

2. The folder path we are using is having some space in folder name (like folder name Finance Department, Production Daily Report etc..).

What to do? If you are having folder path with some folders name having space, you should try to quote the source and destination path with commas.

Example:
ROBOCOPY «\myserverpublic foldershared folder name» «\myipaddresssharedfolderMy Folder»

Cheers, Please write me back if you have any query or feedback..

I keep getting no summary no matter what version of robocopy I used.

Just some untitled numbers:
1 0 0 0 17 17 0 0 0 0 4.21 m 4.21 m 0 0 0 0

When I google around, all I see is others have same issue go read the switches and output log. I already read word by word everywhere. Even I took just the default:

robocopy «from» «to»

Still no summary. What am I missing?

I try batch, if I have multiple start robocopy in my batch, some work, some doesn’t. Why?
