Copy command in Windows Explorer halts on error

[RHertz]

All:

When you use the copy command in Windows Explorer, and you're copying large
numbers of files/directories, etc., the command may stop if it encounters an
error, such a copy-protected file, or some other some such problem. Then
you're stuck: you have only half the files copied that you needed, and you
have no idea where the command stopped without manually looking to see which
files copied, and which ones didn't.

Is there a setting one can change such that the (Explorer) copy command will
ignore all errors and keep going?

Thanks.

Hi,

Not much help but I've not come across a way to do this.
I usually use DOS (e.g. XCOPY) for this kind of thing.
