Don’t use & in file and folder names.
With that little pearl of wisdom out of the way, what about when your users have used ampersand characters in their folder names and you’re trying to robocopy the data to it’s new home, only to have the copy fail?
Try this…
SET “source=dogs & cats”
SET “destination=dogs & cats”
or if you can get away with it without breaking links…
SET “destination=dogs and cats”
robocopy.exe “%source%” “%destination%” /MIR
