tried both in and out of the quotes still get file not found.
when I use the correct path without or with the quotes I get invalid path
weirdly synktoy works OK just slower then my bat file when it used to work.
thanks

Your command isn't correctly formatted right now - the file specification should be inside the quotes. One thing that I noticed is that on my Win10 system (fresh install) the public user's documents folder is just called Documents, so the command should be more like: > xcopy "C:\users\public\documents\intuit" "L:\users\public\public documents\intuit\" /y /d /r
if you wanted to keep the same structure as you show below.

If you view properties (right-click, properties) on the Intuit folder from inside shared documents and look at the Location path, what do you see? Use that path as a base (it should be something like "C:\Users\Public\Documents") and add "\Intuit" to it for the source path.

changed to
xcopy "C:\users\public\public documents\intuit\"*.* "L:\users\public\public documents\intuit\" /y /d /r
now I get a file not found, even if I name the files by name.

thinking win 10 is doing something funny.
appreciate the help.
whole thing makes no sense
did not complain about the CD cmd on either

I would test which path it objects to. C:\... or L:\... or both; by using the path from a CLI.
Example: go to another drive, say E:\ and doing a change dir;
E: cd C:\users\public\documents\intuit\  and
E: cd L:\users\public\documents\intuit\

See if you get errors.  HTH
