XCOPY will do the same as the Windows Explorer, but it will do it through a
DOS prompt and not through the Windows Interface. If you use the Windows
Interface be sure to unhide the hidden files.
I usually use Xcopy32 but I am using doing this on systems before Windows
is installed - thus no Graphical Interface at that point.
