I have scripted CopyBackup.bat to copy files that match a mask to a folder.

The syntax for using CopyBackup.bat is:

CopyBackup BkpFolder Mask Drive1 \[Drive2 Drive3 ... DriveN\] Where:

BkpFolder is the full path to the destination folder.

Mask      is the file mask, like JSI*.txt to copy all text files that start with JSI,
                              or *string*.* to copy all files that have string in their name,
                              or ??ABC*.txt to copy all text files that have ABC in the 3-5 position of their name.

DriveX    is the source drive or folder or share to fully search.

NOTE: If a file named filename.ext was copied from D:\Folder1\Folder2, it will be named D_Folder1_Folder2_filename.ext. If you don't want this full identification, remove the !src!_ from the copy statement.

CopyBackup.bat contains:

@echo off
if \{%3\}
\{\} @echo Syntax: CopyBackup BkpFolder Mask Drive1 \[Drive2 Drive3 ... DriveN\]&goto :EOF
setlocal ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
set bkp=%1#
set bkp=%bkp:"=%
set bkp=%bkp:/#=%
set bkp=%bkp:#=%
set mask=%2
:LOOP
if \{%2\}
\{\} endlocal&goto :EOF
set drv=%2
shift
FOR /R %drv% %%f in (%mask%) do (
 for /f "Tokens=*" %%x in ('@echo %%f^|FIND /I /V "%bkp%\"') do (
  set src=%%~DPf
  set src=!src::=!
  set src=!src:\=_!
  copy /Y "%%f" "%bkp%\!src!_%%~NXf">nul 2>&1
 )
)
goto LOOP
