This kit has a lot of tools which I don't want. All I want is Robocopy. Do I understand correctly that if I had the file RoboCopy.exe and put it in the path of my PC I can use it in the command prompt from any folder, right? If so, how can I extract the Robocopy.exe from the rktools.exe file without installing the entire toolkit?

I think you gave me a good idea. I will install it on one of my old computers and then copy the .exe to this one.
Thanks a lot.
