It's A Digital Disease!

Hi,

For the last few months I've been using Robocopy to make sure any changes I make to files in my drives - title changes, metadata changes, replacements etc - are cloned over to a back-up drive.

However, for the first time today I noticed it removed a few dozen files it termed "Extra", but in my auditing I can't find what they would have been replaced with.

I'm going through the log file and trying to compare things one at a time - it's taking quite a while.

I was wondering if there's a way to have Robocopy print a deleted file's metadata to the log file? At the moment it prints the location it was deleted from and the name of the file, but it'd be a big help if it also printed the tags or comment fields.

Thanks.
