Deploying files to multiple Computers (Batch?)

TheTwist

Not sure if I am writing in the correct place so sorry in advanced.

 

I am constently updating folders thoughtout 20 Windows PC's and was wondering if there is a sutible way to copy them over to each machine at the same time?

I have looked into batch script using robocopy. However because of the size of the files it would be best to compress them before. Is there a way to use robocopy to copy the commpress folder and to extract it when the folder has moved over to the PC's

 

Or can anyone think or any alternitive methord but not copy and past indervidually.

 

I do not want to spend money.

Use FastCopy and bat script.

 

Yeah i am using batscript but cannot find a way to extract the zipped folder.

 

See below inside folder ONE there is a  zip file, i am looking that to copy over and when it copys over, the zip will extract.

 

@echo off
timeout /t 5
robocopy.exe "C:\one" "\\PC1\e\Test" /e
robocopy.exe "C:\one" "\\PC2\e\Test" /e
exit

How about syncing the folder accross network using a master folder, I'm sure there's a free application for that job.

Or maybe create a virtual hard disk and share it.

Something similar to this DysinchDysinchronize

Works like symbiotic linked folder via mklink or rsync
