Desktop PC camera photos backup

Besides the normal Windows backup stuff I like to manually backup the Camera Photos directory to the external Seagate Expansion Drive attached to the Lenovo AIO desktop. Have not done so since about October last year - pretty slack.

From the DOS prompt:

cd to F: (Seagate Expansion Drive)

cd into 'camera photos'

xcopy "c:\camera photos\*.*" /v /d /I /s /r /y

The switches have various functions, one of them says copy only newer files so xcopy will pick-up from the very last file (photo) that was copied October last year.
