Hey, I want to copy off all of the files from a CDR I made years ago. It is getting some errors, so it always stops in the middle of copying and I never know exactly what the last file done was. Is there a way to have it copy and CONTINUE if it can't get some of the files, as in get "all it can?"

Make an ISO of the CD then extract the contents of the ISO with UltraISO to your Hard Drive.

It'll probably get an error and abort reading the ISO. I'm thinking this is a physical media error.

It was burned via an old Mac onto a very suspicious Sony CD-R disc (very silver toned 2x, not blueish 32x, etc). I think the laser power was not right or the dye a poor formulation.

About 90% of the files come off, but there are hundreds to sort through. I dont know much about ISOs. IS there a way to do a copy command that will ignore errors or make a report, WITHOUT stopping?

xcopy D:\Source C:\Destination /E /C /H

Thanks

worked great

/E
/C
/H

E copy empty directories
C Continue even after an error
H copy hidden files too
