How can I make robocopy silent in the command line except for progress?

Question

Hi,

I'm using robocopy to do backups with a PowerShell script, and it's pretty awesome, except that I'd like it to only show the progress percentage while it copies and not all of the other information.

The other information clutters the command window, which I'd clean and simple so that it's easy to see the overall progress of the backup.

Is this possible?

Thanks, Andrew

I finally figured this out. I did it by using the following options: /njh /njs /ndl /nc /ns

Note that the file name still displays, but that's fine for me.
