Find the command line!
To do what you're looking to do: xcopy {source} {destination} /d /e /cStuff it in a batch file and you'll only have to type it out once. The downside is that doing this from a prompt will be slower than from explorer since it won't take advantage of Windows' write buffering. But... I'm sure that there's a freebie Windows app that will do this as well. Wander VersionTracker - it's a pretty good resource to find apps.

When all else fails, revert to DOS. I had actually forgotten the XCOPY. I used to know it by heart. That and DELTREE where your friend in the DOS days.

A simple free program that windows finally realized was needed is Synctoy.
Google it, download it, it's exactly what you want.
