powershell copy creates extra empty folders -
i'm using simple command copy on files , folders dropped temp folder.
copy c:\update_temp\* c:\target\ -recurse -force
say update_temp has following structure
c:\update_temp\first_file.txt c:\update_temp\first_folder\anotherfile.txt
when run command, here end with
c:\target\first_file.txt c:\target\first_folder\anotherfile.txt **c:\target\first_folder\first_folder**
not sure why last entry happening, end ton of unnecessary folders.
i'm running powershell v1
any ideas? thanks
i'm not sure why folder being created, think want call copy without *:
copy c:\update_temp\ c:\target\ -recurse -force
this recursively copy update_temp target.
what you're doing copying under update_temp target. that's subtely different , while can't quite puzzle out why end first_folder\first_folder, isn't want.
