How can I copy files from multiple folders using the Windows command line?

Question

I have txt files in multiple folders: (folder_1, folder_2 . . . folder_n).

I would like to copy all these files into another directory using the Windows command line.

How can I accomplish this?

Solution

you can try it using a batch file
place all the copy commands that you need into the batch file, for example

copy <path1>\file*.txt <destination> 
copy <path2>\file*.txt <destination>

and so on as many times as you need. Then run the batch file
Create the batch file in notepad and save with the .bat extension

How would you like conflicting filenames to be handled? Ignored (skipped)? Overwritten? Abort the copy operation? Could you provide an example (list some sample source file paths and same destination file paths)?

Would the answers to this question help? They handle conflicting filenames.

The question is asking about copying files from multiple folders. Unless you are recommending manually changing to each directory before copying, this does not answer the question. And the question implies a large number of directories where manual switching is far from optional.
