Hi all
I have the problem about archive the file on my C: drive to D: Drive
I use the structure
File loop (for select the file older then 1 day)
   Copy/Move File (Enable Move option and Recure to Subfolder)
End Loop
But the file on D: Drive is not contain the old folder structure.
How can I move the file with the folder structure.

Look at the "Synchronize folders" action. It is more comfortable for backups. It copies only newest files and saves the folder structure.
For backups you may use unidirectional synchronization.
We use this action for our backups too.

"Synchronize folders" overwrites old files in destination folder. Thus, you always have the newest version of your files.

No problem. Put the "delete files" action after synchronization.

"Synchronize folders" doesn't inform you what files it copied.
