Using visual-studio: Using Robocopy in VS Postbuild – Automatically Overwrite When Moving Files on newest questions tagged visual-studio – Stack Overflow

I tried the following postbuild command in VS to copy all the dlls and other related files into a centralized folder:

robocopy $(TargetDir) $(TargetDir)Bin *.dll *.pdb *.xml  /MOVE

It successfully moves them if the Bin folder doesn’t have those files yet. But after the second execution, the files are not moved. I am suspecting that it fails because the files in there already exist. Is there a switch to force overwrite without prompting? I looked at the possible switches for robocopy and can’t really find the one I am looking for.
