I need to merge 2 folders together that will contain some of the same files, and some new ones. There are a LOT of files to merge in. I know you can rename the source folder to the same as the target, but you have handle the create copy dialog. Anyway to bypass that dialog? Maybe using a command prompt?
I would recommend using the free Microsoft RichCopy. RichCopy is essentially an updated GUI and backend for Microsoft's older Robocopy. This utility works very well and is highly configurable. It has the ability to continue if an error is encountered so as not to abort the overall copy process. One of its more notable strengths is the ability to very easily allocate resources (assign multiple process threads, cache size, etc..) to control the overall copy process in a very granular fashion. I use this tool often to merge gigabytes of source data into a single folder. It will also output a command line string if you would prefer that. The tool in unsupported by Microsoft but over the years I have had no issues with it's day to day use.
