Windows 10 - Copying Directory Structures without Files

Open a command prompt by clicking search and typing command , You should see the Command Prompt app, click on it.

Then type the following instructions (replace the full name for the folders below by your own directory structure). The example below copies the directory structure of C:\YourExistingFolder into a new folder called TheNewFolder under drive C:

xcopy /t /e "C:\YourExistingFolder" "C:\TheNewFolder"

/t = Copies the subdirectory structure, but not the files

/e = Copies subdirectories, including any empty ones

Please note that some instructions on the internet forget to use " " around the directory names and at least on Windows 10  this results in errors!
