I think you mean the copy command in the windows command prompt?

If so, here is the syntax:

copy [/d] [/v] [/n] [{/y|/-y}] [/z] [{/a|/b}] Source [{/a|/b}] [+ Source[{/a|/b}] [+ ...]] [Destination[{/a|/b}]]

Parameters/d : Allows the encrypted files being copied to be saved as decrypted files at the destination.

/v : Verifies that new files are written correctly.

/n : Uses a short file name, if available, when copying a file with a name longer than eight characters, or with a file extension longer than three characters.

/y : Suppresses prompting to confirm that you want to overwrite an existing destination file.

/-y : Prompts you to confirm that you want to overwrite an existing destination file.

/z : Copies networked files in restartable mode.

/a : Indicates an ASCII text file.

/b : Indicates a binary file.
