Can you help me. I want to copy some files to another directory but the files should not be overwritten and i dont want a dialog box to pop up. The script should only copy the files that are not in the destination folder without any question. Is this possible?

Yes it is possible.

Look at FileCopy() in the helpfile (comes with AutoIt installation). FileExists() might help you some too... Or perhaps FileMove()

Specifically look at the advanced options in FileCopy. There you can choose if you want to overwrite or not.

Yes, it is in the help file, look for filecopy

FileCopy ( "source", "dest" [, flag] )

flag

[optional] this flag determines whether to overwrite files if they already exist.

Can be a combination of the following:

0 = (default) do not overwrite existing files

1 = overwrite existing files

8 = Create destination directory structure if it doesn't exist (See Remarks).
