@@ -7,14 +7,15 @@ An example of using Robocopy is below, with a full breakdown:
```
robocopy "E:\Source" "Z:\Destination" /Z /B /R:5 /W:5 /MT:4 /COPYALL /E
```
+ `robocopy "Source" "Destination"`: The application itself
+ `/Z` : If the network transfer is interrupted, it will resume when the network comes back online
+ `/B` : Backup Mode - This can be used to circumvent ACLs on folders and files, just forcing them to copy bypassing permissions
+ `R:5` : Number of times to retry copying the same file
+ `W:5` : The number of seconds to wait between retries
+ `/MT:4` : *_Threaded_* copies that run on their own threads
+ `/COPYALL` : Retain all file/folder permissions and ownership data
+ `/E` : Copy every folder, including empty ones

!!! tip "Usage of Administrative Shares"
Whenever dealing with copying data from one server to another, try to leverage "Administrative Shares", sometimes referred to as "Default Shares". These exist in such a way that, if the server exists in a Windows-based domain, you can type something like `\\SERVER\C$` or `\\SERVER\E$` to access files and bypass most file access restrictions (Generally for reading data, writing works too, but not in all circumstances).
