Windows 7 xcopy issues
I was making a batch file to do some rather large file moves to the new server. xcopy "//servername/directory/" "destination" Anyway I noticed the batch file started just looping over and over the same line not going anywhere.
I did a ctrl c to break out. So I put a pause after the line and it started doing the same thing. I thought odd so I made another batch named test.bat with only the command xcopy in it without anything before or after. It went directly
to that same looping batch file I had problems with before. I rebooted the computer same thing. I pulled the ethernet cable still did the same thing. Need help trying to figure out why its doing this. I even did the batch file
for net use but as soon as the command prompt came up it still showed the xcopy going. Clueless at this point to what I can do in order to fix this problem.

XCOPY doesn't normally do that.
You don't have a batch file called XCOPY.BAT in your path do you?
