[/EXCLUDE:file1[+file2][+file3]...]
source Specifies the file(s) to copy.
destination Specifies the location and/or name of new files.
/D:m-d-y Copies files changed on or after the specified date.
If no date is given, copies only those files whose
source time is newer than the destination time.
/EXCLUDE:file1[+file2][+file3]...
Specifies a list of files containing strings. Each string
should be in a separate line in the files. When any of the
strings match any part of the absolute path of the file to be
copied, that file will be excluded from being copied. For
example, specifying a string like \obj\ or .obj will exclude
all files underneath the directory obj or all files with the
.obj extension respectively.
/S Copies directories and subdirectories except empty ones.
/E Copies directories and subdirectories, including empty ones.
/L List only - Displays files that would be copied.
/C Continues copying even if errors occur.
/H Copies hidden and system files also (default=NO).
As XCOPY
will accept UNC
pathnames, next example (list all files changed or created today from C:\Windows
folder and its subfolders of 192.168.1.100
server, excluding folders specified in E727714.txt
file) could help:
==> type E727714.txt
\system32\
\sysWOW64\
\SoftwareDistribution\
==> xcopy \\192.168.1.100\C$\windows /C /S /L /D:10-09-2015 /EXCLUDE:E727714.txt>727714.log
==> type 727714.log
\\192.168.1.100\C$\windows\WindowsUpdate.log
\\192.168.1.100\C$\windows\debug\mrt.log
