cannot execute copy command in the command line way

[mang]

I have one file 'Easy Unlock Method With SAM.mp4' which is in a pendrive, I would like to copy this file to Hard disk E:\ using the command line but some how i could not do it
I switch from C: to I: which is the USB pendrive and give the command copy Easy Unlock Method With SAM.mp4 E: ( not working)
copy Easy Unlock Method With SAM.mp4 E:\ (not working)
copy I:\Easy Unlock Method With SAM.mp4 E:\ ( not working)

What should I Do ?

Check whether you're having access over to the destined drive.

Which OS you are in?

If I remember, the file name with spaced are not recognized in that way in XP. it would be something like Easy~1.mp4 or something like that. Do a DIR command to check what the file name is.

In Windows Visa and 7, the file names with spaces are like "Saved Games". NOTE : Within " " quotes.

I guess, its the file name with spaces that denied you..
try

COPY I:\"Easy Unlock Method With SAM.mp4" E:\

^^As I said, ofcourse it's. DOS doesn't recognize file name with spaces. Instead he needs to use "" as you and I both said above.

I was not sure. But thanks for confirming

It is Win 7 working perfectly I hope it is the "" syndrome i will try by using the Quote

 

[krishnandu.sarkar]

In that case use "" and everything will work fine

Thanks you all for your valuable Tips. The double Quote do the job.

Why are you copying over "Command line".
Are you learning DOS commands?
