Xcopy is already there.

Start, Run, CMD and in the window use xcopy. It is equivalent to Xcopy32.

You might also benefit from this freeware tool, as it offers a much richer set of options than Xcopy. It is called XXCOPY:
 
i tried finding the file xcopy*.* in the c: drive (using find files) but unfortunately i didn't find anything. so i assumed that they were not included in the previous installation. how will i install them now? they're maybe there but since my boss (who actually owns the laptop) is using the xp pro chinese version, does this affect the dos file names? thanx again...
 
It should be in c:\windows\system32
The english version is 28KB
 
bcastner,

i still can't find it. i'll try your other sugestion which is using the freeware version of xxcopy. thnx :)
