Thread: What is the MOVE command to move the files from one server to another server?

Hello, I am running Windows Server 2003. I want to move the files form \\server1\c$\folder\*.* to \\server2\c$\folder\. I have created one bat file, but it is not working. The bat file is running as a Windows Scheduled Task. It is running as a Domain Admin. The file is:

move C:\server1\c$\folder\*.* \\server2\c$\folder\

Can anyone help me to move the files? Please.

The MOVE command only works only if the source and destination are on the same physical drive. So, you can use the robocopy.exe from the Windows Resource Kit. The download link for robocopy.exe is below:

The command to move the files is:

robocopy \\server1\c$\folder \\server1\c$\folder *.* /move
