Need a little help with the command prompt

Hello there ...


I wish if anyone can give me a hand with this .. !

thought the command prompt is it possible to create a logical partition or a volume , so I can copy the files ( My documents, desktop content and favorites) from drive C: to the other partition
I was willing to make a patch file to do this but " No Sufficient experience "
:o


Thank you in advance !

I believe you need exsisting, un-partitioned disk space to do that.


Try partition magic, or any other of the several partition programs out there.

Thank for neodude112320 & CrazeD for all your help, I have created a partition through partition magic, the issue now how can I copy this path ( C:\Documents and Settings\HP Administrator )

to the new partition or to my USB Drive or External HDD.

As long there are Spaces the command prompt reject to copy

I have used ( Disk Part ) to check the drive for sure ( C ) is the main drive I have ( D ) is my Second Partition.

I need to learn this way .. in case of system failure I can copy my stuff.

I have tried to put a costation marks ( "" )

and it dosn't work

You need this:

XCOPY C:\Documents and Settings\HP Administrator e: /e

the /e at the end will ensure all subdirectories (including empty ones) will be copied
