First the user of your program should have admin rights. In VB6 include microsoft Scripting Runtime. Create a file system object. using getwindowsdirectory API and left$() function get the WINNT folder. using filesystemobject check the authority in the source and destination folder. Otherwise display error. if you have rights use filecopy method and copy the files to the destination folder.
