Robocopy interrupted copy, start from the last element that you copy?

1

I have a list of folders with very large subfolders, approximately 1 TB, I am making a copy of all the data with robocopy and the windows console.

The connection to the computer is very unstable, and sometimes the console hangs and forces me to launch the robocopy command again.

Is there a way to tell robocopy to start where you stayed last time? Even tell me to start from a folder?

According to a quick google search, this is not done natively in Windows as if it were done in linux, you can try two things

1.- generate a script VB upload the script to the computer to which you connect, run it and then close the connection

2.- The other thing is to use the START own command of CMD (cmd, not windows) this will make it start another instance apart from CMD

Well, this is indicated on the basis of assumptions, since in reality I have never seen the need to do something like this, only in remote desktop or in linux adding a & to leave the process running in the background, although this is still "stuck" to the running terminal with the command $ jobs you can see the processes that are stuck to the terminal and then with $ disown %X you leave the command running in memory without depending on the terminal where the X is running represents the job number returned by the jobs command. I forgot to mention another command in linux $ nohup "comando" & with this is not necessary nor list with jobs or anything

I hope you will receive points 1 and 2
