Question

I’m trying to execute the copy command from the visual studio external tools, but I’m getting an error saying that the command is unknown.

How should i set the path for the copy command? as i know it’s operation system command and not executable file.

Thanks

The copy command is a built-in, not an external program. You could use cmd.exe /c copy (args) to execute it. Alternately, xcopy is an external program (xcopy.exe).
