Re: Task is currently running or busy... "hangs" RoboTask execution of my task

Re: I just crashed v1098

just to be clear, it is a bug and it crashed and after the crash some folders disappeared.. if i restored an old cats.tree then the folders are magically visible again..

Renaming Task .tsk files

is it ok to rename the .tsk file? do I have to do anything in RoboTask or can I just rename it when RoboTask is closed?

Copying Folder recursively, ignoring contents of certain subfolders

Is there an easy way to copy a folder and all its subfolders to another folder (but not copy the contents of certain folders, e.g. .vs folders - which can be anywhere within the folder's subfolders tree levels) ?
