pause

Could replace /d with /m instead.

/E Copies directories and subdirectories, including empty ones.
/Y Suppresses prompting to confirm you want to overwrite existing destination file.
/C Continues copying even if errors occur.
/I If destination does not exist and copying more than one file, assumes that destination must be a directory.
/R Overwrites read-only files.
/H Copies hidden and system files also.
/K Copies attributes. Normal Xcopy will reset read-only attributes.
/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.
/G Allows the copying of encrypted files to destination that does not support encryption.
/M Copies only files with the archive attribute set, turns off the archive attribute.

Task Scheduler

Settings -> Stop Task if it runs longer than: 1 day
If the task is already running then the following rule applies: Stop the existing instance

schtasks /create /tn "Batch Backup" /tr "backup.bat" /sc onstart /rl highest
Run task every time Windows starts

schtasks /create /tn "Batch Backup" /tr "backup.bat" /sc daily /st 20:00:00 /rl highest
Run task every day at 8pm

schtasks /create /tn "Batch Backup" /tr "backup.bat" /sc hourly /rl highest
Run task every hour

schtasks /create /tn "Batch Backup" /tr "backup.bat" /sc minute /mo 30 /rl highest
Run task every 30 minutes

schtasks /run /tn "Batch Backup"
Run the task immediately

You have to Run command Prompt As Administrator or you get "Error: Access is denied" for schtasks /create

Add /ru "system" to have batch file run in background without popping up

for /f %%a in ('wmic path win32_localtime get dayofweek /format:list ^|findstr "="') do (set %%a)
echo %dayofweek%

for /f %%a in ('wmic path win32_localtime get day /format:list ^| 

findstr "="') do (set %%a)
echo %day%

set drive=E:
set folder=batbackup

md "%drive%\%folder%"

md "%drive%\%folder%\%dayofweek%"

pause
