Product Overview

"The full power of Robocopy, made simple with an intuitive GUI and scheduling."

Robocopy Scheduler is an intuitive GUI frontend and scheduler management tool for Windows Robocopy. Without memorizing complicated command-line parameters, you can easily configure mirror syncs (/MIR), multithreading (/MT), and SMB compression (/COMPRESS) right within an elegant interface to run automated background backups seamlessly.

Intuitive GUI & Advanced Options

Configure mirror sync (/MIR), safe copy (/E), update-only (/E /XO), SMB compression (/COMPRESS), and backup mode (/ZB) with single-click ease.

Flexible Scheduling

Schedule backups hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, or with standard Cron expressions to run reliably in the background.

Sleep Prevention & System Tray

Built-in option to prevent unexpected PC sleep while waiting for backups. Supports silent auto-start in the system tray on Windows boot.

External Webhooks & CSV Logs

Automatically send backup notifications to Slack Webhooks or ntfy.sh. Includes real-time log viewer and CSV export functionality.

Live Action Demo

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

A. Yes, it is completely safe. As an indie PC utility without an expensive corporate EV certificate, Windows SmartScreen presents this initial advisory dialog for new executables.
To launch, click "More info" and select "Run anyway".

A. Managing complex Robocopy parameters (/MIR, /ZB, /MT, etc.) within scripts is prone to syntax errors and maintenance headaches. Robocopy Scheduler provides an intuitive GUI, sleep prevention during schedules, live log monitoring, CSV exports, and Slack/ntfy error notifications—all without writing or maintaining batch scripts.

A. Automated scheduled background execution on domain-joined PCs or Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) corporate machines requires a Pro Edition subscription license.
Even on Free Edition, immediate manual backup execution using the "Run Now" button is completely unrestricted.

A. No, zero runtime installation is required.
Robocopy Scheduler is compiled with .NET 10 Native AOT as a single standalone executable. It runs completely portably without installing runtimes and writes zero keys to the Windows registry.

A. Enabling "Prevent automatic PC sleep while waiting for schedules" under the "Global Settings" tab blocks Windows from entering sleep mode while jobs are pending.

A. Robocopy returns exit codes in bitmask format. Values 0 to 7 indicate successful syncs (including warnings for mismatched timestamps or extra files in target), whereas exit codes 8 or higher indicate failed copies or critical errors, triggering error log highlights and external webhook alerts.

A. Yes. In "Global Settings", configure your Slack Incoming Webhook URL or ntfy.sh topic name to receive instant push alerts whenever a backup job completes or encounters an error.
