robocopy:tldr:8576f
The given command is using the Windows command-line utility "robocopy" for copying files and directories. Here is the explanation of each component of the command:
-
robocopy
: This is the name of the utility that is used to perform robust file copy operations in Windows. -
${path\to\source_directory}
: This is the path to the source directory that you want to copy from. You need to replace${path\to\source_directory}
with the actual path on your system. For example, if the source directory is located at "C:\Source", the command would be "robocopy C:\Source ${path\to\destination_directory} /MIN:${52428800} /L". -
${path\to\destination_directory}
: This is the path to the destination directory where you want to copy the files to. Again, you need to replace${path\to\destination_directory}
with the actual path on your system. For example, if the destination directory is "D:\Destination", the command would be "robocopy C:\Source D:\Destination /MIN:${52428800} /L". -
/MIN:${52428800}
: This option sets the minimum file size to be copied. In this case, it is set to 52428800 bytes (which is 50 megabytes). It means that only files larger than or equal to this size will be copied. -
/L
: This option is used for a "list-only" mode. When specified, robocopy will simulate the copy operation and display a list of files that will be copied without actually performing the copy. It is useful for previewing the files that will be copied before actually running the command.
Overall, the given command is using robocopy to list files that meet the size requirement (/MIN) and display a simulation of the copy operation (/L) from a source directory to a destination directory.
