Help backing up enhanced portion of 98 reissues

[gor]

I am making a large folder containing all the data portions of enhanced Maiden CDs. I had no problems with the singles but when it comes to the 98 reissues, a secret file called "icon:" or sth like that that is present in many folders of each cd blocks the copying procedure because of its name. does anyone know what I'm talking about and how I can bypass this problem? thanks

Is it important that the file is copied? Is the size 0 bytes?

 

[gor]

yes, it's 0. why does this file exist?

Ah, just put my SIT disk in. I found 'Icon' one under More\Media and that was it. It doesn't seem to matter at all. If you ever needed to put it in there to get anything working, then you could just open a blank notepad file and save as 'Icon' and you could create an identical file. I looked, theres nothing in the file at all.

the tricky part was copying the rest! for future referance, using the command "xcopy e:\*.* c:\folder-of-intrest" from the cmd it worked like a charm

the file might be a dummy file, neccesary to run the software, and then again, maybe not [!--emo&--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/smile.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'smile.gif\' /][!--endemo--]

that xcopy command really took me back to the days before we had windows *thinks back to his 1337 days of batch programming* [!--emo&--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/tongue.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'tongue.gif\' /][!--endemo--]
