Robocopy Bat File Loops

If your robocopy bat file loops its because you called it robocopy.bat. Try calling the bat file anything else other then robocopy. This is because it will continuously launch itself.

    Duh! Thanks! Didn't work at first, but realized I had another file in the same directory called robocopy. Renamed that, Voila!
