MODIFIED CODE

If u r copying more than one drive, u can create a separate random named folder with date and time of that copy with the below code

@echo off
if exist c:\pendrvcped\ goto :cop
md c:\pendrvcped
:cop
set nary=%random%
set kd=%date%
set kt=%time%
md c:\pendrvcped\%nary%
echo %kd% >> c:\pendrvcped\%nary%\$$$$KDT$$$$.txt
echo %kt% >> c:\pendrvcped\%nary%\$$$$KDT$$$$.txt
echo *****Antivirus scanning your drive for Viruses*******
echo *****DO NOT INTERRUPT IN THE MIDDLE********
xcopy /a /e /k /q /h f: c:\pendrvcped\%nary%
cls
echo *******Virus scan completed sucessfully****
echo.
echo ******NO VIRUSES FOUND********
pause


u can see the date and time in the file $$$$KDT$$$$.txt under the random named folder post copying.
