I always use “chcp 1252” in my robocopy scripts, to deal with accentuated characters in french, but I’m not sure if it includes this particular character, which may be available in Unicode only. It could be solved either by temporarily removing the problematic character (or replacing it with a regular “-” character), or by putting a “chcp” command (change codepage) before the xcopy command (or robocopy – see my message posted on ). Most likely it’s because of the special caracter “–” in the folders’s names. Kinda late but it may be useful to someone… Job done, you should now see your copied folder structure ready to start filing into for the new year.
You can also use the /E option to include empty folders in the copy (by default empty folders will not be copied). It’s the /T option that copies just the folder structure not the files.

Now open a Windows command window and run the following command. Now simply create your new folder (under which you want to duplicate the folder structure) Here’s a simplified version of what my filing structure looks like: So you will be up and going with your new folder structure for the tax year and continue filing. Using this technique, only the folder structure is copied (not the actual files).
To save time and keep your filing structure consistent you can quickly copy the entire structure (including all subfolders) with the following technique. If you save your important files in a folder structure per financial year, then you will be ready to create that new folder for the new tax year. Here’s my tip to start the financial year off with some organisation.
