    Hi 

    Robocopy has it own Exit Codes, here a link to the exit codes

    http://ss64.com/nt/robocopy-exit.html

    i made a short script to reset the exit codes

    if %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 3 (

    set errorlevel=0

    echo OKCOPY + XTRA

    goto end )

    if %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 2  (

    set errorlevel=0

    echo XTRA

    goto end

    )

    if %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 1 (

    set errorlevel=0

    echo OKCOPY

    goto end

    )

    if %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 echo No Change 

    :end

    echo %ERRORLEVEL%
