Are you trying to create a bootable mirror backup ?

If you just want exact copying of one file to another,
Be in the directory where the file is
Use Xcopy, Example: Xcopy (file name) target directory
You can update the copied file by using -
Xcopy /u (file name) target directory

You might try robocopy (from the resource kit) which can be set to resync
every n minutes or every n changes.

Mcrosoft also has a powertoy called SyncToy which will probably be easier to
set up and understand (has a GUI).
