Create a TimeStamp Folder in windows - Batch script Backup

You can write a script to create a folder in Windows
Open the Command Prompt and type echo %date% to get todays date.

If we wanted to get the current year we can start 4 from the end, and 4 in length.

echo %date:~-4,4%

For the month we start with 7

echo %date:~-7,2%

For the day we start with 10

echo %date:~-10,2%

To create a backup using the batch script use this:

set TIMESTAMP=%DATE:~-10,2%-%DATE:~-7,2%-%DATE:~-4,4%

@echo TIMESTAMP=%TIMESTAMP%

xcopy C:\BACKUPS\*.* D:\BackupFolder\%TIMESTAMP%\ /e /i /y

This will copy everything on the folder Backups from C Drive to BackupFolder on D Drive with a time stamp folder.
