The command to copy the Program Files folder is:
copy “c:\program files” d:\tmp
Notice that in order to copy folders that have a blank space, you need to add quotes (“”).
For simple files, the command is
copy c:\file.doc d:\tmp
The problem with copying folders in MSDos is that usually it will not work. You will receive an error.
However, you can copy files.
For example I have tried to copy folders from a PC that has Windows XP Home Edition and it was not possible.
What I had to do was to insert the Hard drive to another PC and copy them from the normal Windows interface.
