Copy files to desktop in SCCM 2012
1.
Create a parent folder in your source file
repository (I created DesktopTools).
2.
Create a sub-folder in the folder just created
called Files2Copy and place the files you are going to copy to desktop in this
folder.
if not exist "%1" md "%1"
copy /y "%~dp0Files2Copy\*.*" "%1"
3.
Create a batch file called filecopy.bat (if you’re
not sure how to create a batch file here’s a quick instructions - A. open
notepad and copy paste those 2 lines in below B. save as then point to the
DesktopTools folder, name it filecopy.bat) with the below two lines and place
it in the parent directory created in step 1. This batch file will create a
folder specified on the command-line (if it doesn’t already exist) and copy the
files from the Files2Copy folder into it.
So it should looks like below
