MyBackup4.avi Part 4

In part 4 I describe that it is important to include the hard drive structure when you do a backup. I show how tokens and delims work and how variables in the order of the alfabet is assigned from each token. I use the path separator to get the second token and the rest of the path assigned to %%b variable. That is how I remove "c:/. That is later used to rebuild file path structure when copying the file to c:/mybackup. I show how to remove the last " character using simple string manipulation.

I also explain why I need to use the short name file path version when adding a task to the scheduler.

I show hot to convert a filepath to a folder path. It solves what the path is to where the script is running. The path is used to tell the batch to copy to its current location.
