XCOPY: Overwrite all without prompt in BATCH

Question

I'm writing a batch program for copying all files newer than the destination from "C:\Users\ADMIN\Desktop" to "D:\Backup".

This code is works:

xcopy "C:\Users\ADMIN\Desktop\*.*" "D:\Backup\" /K /D /H

However, it asks for each existing destination file: Overwrite file [Yes / No / All]?

I want to overwrite all existing destination files without user intervention.

How can I solve this?

Solution

The solution is the /Y switch:

xcopy "C:\Users\ADMIN\Desktop\*.*" "D:\Backup\" /K /D /H /Y

the /Y option only overwrites the pre-existing files: lifewire.com/xcopy-command-2618103

In my case, I am looking to overwrite EVERYTHING. the contents of one folder to replace another folder's content

I know, stupid windows. each one of them has a different problem. rmdir says folder is in use by another applicaion, Poweshell Remove-Item says dies not have permission and so on.
