Can you do it from within python at the >>> prompt Use os.getcwd() to find out where you are Use os.chdir() to navigate Use os.listdir() to list the folder contents and use shutil.copy() to copy the files. Doing it manually from inside the >>> prompt should show up any problems. You can even try the filecomp call from in there too... >>> is a powerful tool.
