CopyFiles
Windows CE expects certain files to be in the Windows folder, residing in volatile storage. Windows
CE maintains the System Registry in volatile storage. CopyFiles copies files from one folder to another
on a cold boot. Files can be copied from a non-volatile partition (Application or Platform) to the
Windows or other volatile partition during a cold boot. During a cold boot CopyFiles looks for files
with a .CPY extension in the root of the Platform and Application FFS partitions (Platform first and
then Application). These files are text files containing the source and destination for the desired files
to be copied separated by “>”. The following example from the file application.cpy is contained on
the demo application partition included in the DCP for MC9000w. It can also be obtained from the
Symbol web site at
