I was troubleshooting somebody else's computer and needed to back up their files while excluding some stuff. Microsoft used to put out a free utility called RoboCopy GUI that helped setting up the parameters for robocopy and made it easier to copy/paste pathnames when setting up a complex command where you need to exclude things like most of AppData. Yet I couldn't find the download link on Microsoft's site or the Microsoft Store. I kept getting taken to links to this article or the link in said article:Utility Spotlight: Robocopy GUI | Microsoft Learnhttps://download.microsoft.com/download/f/

Sure, here are some alternative tools to RoboCopy GUI:

 

- Gs Richcopy360 is a free and open-source tool that offers a graphical user interface for RoboCopy. It has a number of features that RoboCopy GUI does not, such as the ability to copy files in parallel, resume interrupted copies, and create scheduled backups.

 

- SyncToy is a free tool from Microsoft that can be used to synchronize files and folders between two locations. It has a simple user interface and can be used to copy, move, or delete files and folders.

 

- FastCopy is a free and open-source tool that offers a fast and efficient way to copy files. It has a number of features that make it a good alternative to RoboCopy GUI, such as the ability to copy files in parallel, resume interrupted copies, and create checksums of copied files.

 

All of these tools are available for download from the internet. I hope this helps!
