Question

I need to make copy of folder with subfolders, but do it without any files, except data that include folder “Project”.

So I need to do new folders tree, but it should include only files that was present in subfolder named “Project”.

ok, My solution:

$folder = dir D:\ -r
$folder

foreach ($f in $folder)
{
    switch ($f.name)
    {
    "project"
    {
        Copy-Item -i *.* $f.FullName D:\test2
    }

    default
    {
    Copy-Item  -exclude *.* $f.FullName D:\test2
    }

    }
}

Another solution:

$source = "c:\dev"
$destination = "c:\temp\copydev"

Get-ChildItem -Path $source -Recurse -Force |
    Where-Object { $_.psIsContainer } |
    ForEach-Object { $_.FullName -replace [regex]::Escape($source), $destination } |
    ForEach-Object { $null = New-Item -ItemType Container -Path $_ -Force }

Get-ChildItem -Path $source -Recurse -Force |
    Where-Object { -not $_.psIsContainer -and (Split-Path $_.PSParentPath -Leaf) -eq "Project"} |
    Copy-Item -Force -Destination { $_.FullName -replace [regex]::Escape($source), $destination }
