对于d4nt的答案有一个小的改进，因为如果你在服务器和开发机器上工作，你可能想检查错误，而不必更改xcopy路径:

public void CopyFolder(string source, string destination)
{
    string xcopyPath = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("WINDIR") + @"\System32\xcopy.exe";
    ProcessStartInfo info = new ProcessStartInfo(xcopyPath);
    info.UseShellExecute = false;
    info.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
    info.Arguments = string.Format("\"{0}\" \"{1}\" /E /I", source, destination);

    Process process = Process.Start(info);
    process.WaitForExit();
    string result = process.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();

    if (process.ExitCode != 0)
    {
        // Or your own custom exception, or just return false if you prefer.
        throw new InvalidOperationException(string.Format("Failed to copy {0} to {1}: {2}", source, destination, result));
    }
}

复制自MSDN:

using System;
using System.IO;

class CopyDir
{
    public static void Copy(string sourceDirectory, string targetDirectory)
    {
        DirectoryInfo diSource = new DirectoryInfo(sourceDirectory);
        DirectoryInfo diTarget = new DirectoryInfo(targetDirectory);

        CopyAll(diSource, diTarget);
    }

    public static void CopyAll(DirectoryInfo source, DirectoryInfo target)
    {
        Directory.CreateDirectory(target.FullName);

        // Copy each file into the new directory.
        foreach (FileInfo fi in source.GetFiles())
        {
            Console.WriteLine(@"Copying {0}\{1}", target.FullName, fi.Name);
            fi.CopyTo(Path.Combine(target.FullName, fi.Name), true);
        }

        // Copy each subdirectory using recursion.
        foreach (DirectoryInfo diSourceSubDir in source.GetDirectories())
        {
            DirectoryInfo nextTargetSubDir =
                target.CreateSubdirectory(diSourceSubDir.Name);
            CopyAll(diSourceSubDir, nextTargetSubDir);
        }
    }

    public static void Main()
    {
        string sourceDirectory = @"c:\sourceDirectory";
        string targetDirectory = @"c:\targetDirectory";

        Copy(sourceDirectory, targetDirectory);
    }

    // Output will vary based on the contents of the source directory.
}

下面的代码是微软建议如何复制目录 由亲爱的@iato分享 但是它只是递归地复制源文件夹的子目录和文件，而不复制源文件夹本身(如右键单击->复制)。

但在这个答案下面有一个棘手的方法:

private static void DirectoryCopy(string sourceDirName, string destDirName, bool copySubDirs = true)
        {
            // Get the subdirectories for the specified directory.
            DirectoryInfo dir = new DirectoryInfo(sourceDirName);

            if (!dir.Exists)
            {
                throw new DirectoryNotFoundException(
                    "Source directory does not exist or could not be found: "
                    + sourceDirName);
            }

            DirectoryInfo[] dirs = dir.GetDirectories();
            // If the destination directory doesn't exist, create it.
            if (!Directory.Exists(destDirName))
            {
                Directory.CreateDirectory(destDirName);
            }

            // Get the files in the directory and copy them to the new location.
            FileInfo[] files = dir.GetFiles();
            foreach (FileInfo file in files)
            {
                string temppath = Path.Combine(destDirName, file.Name);
                file.CopyTo(temppath, false);
            }

            // If copying subdirectories, copy them and their contents to new location.
            if (copySubDirs)
            {
                foreach (DirectoryInfo subdir in dirs)
                {
                    string temppath = Path.Combine(destDirName, subdir.Name);
                    DirectoryCopy(subdir.FullName, temppath, copySubDirs);
                }
            }
        }

如果你想递归复制源文件夹和子文件夹的内容，你可以像这样简单地使用它:

string source = @"J:\source\";
string dest= @"J:\destination\";
DirectoryCopy(source, dest);

但是如果你想复制源目录自己(类似于你右键单击源文件夹，然后单击复制，然后在目标文件夹中单击粘贴)，你应该像这样使用:

 string source = @"J:\source\";
 string dest= @"J:\destination\";
 DirectoryCopy(source, Path.Combine(dest, new DirectoryInfo(source).Name));

下面的代码复制所有文件从源到目标给定的模式在相同的文件夹结构:

public static void Copy()
        {
            string sourceDir = @"C:\test\source\";
            string destination = @"C:\test\destination\";

            string[] textFiles = Directory.GetFiles(sourceDir, "*.txt", SearchOption.AllDirectories);

            foreach (string textFile in textFiles)
            {
                string fileName = textFile.Substring(sourceDir.Length);
                string directoryPath = Path.Combine(destination, Path.GetDirectoryName(fileName));
                if (!Directory.Exists(directoryPath))
                    Directory.CreateDirectory(directoryPath);

                File.Copy(textFile, Path.Combine(directoryPath, Path.GetFileName(textFile)), true);
            }
        }

试试这个:

Process proc = new Process();
proc.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = true;
proc.StartInfo.FileName = Path.Combine(Environment.SystemDirectory, "xcopy.exe");
proc.StartInfo.Arguments = @"C:\source C:\destination /E /I";
proc.Start();

你的xcopy参数可能会有所不同，但你知道的。

这里有一个简洁而有效的解决方案:

namespace System.IO {
  public static class ExtensionMethods {

    public static void CopyTo(this DirectoryInfo srcPath, string destPath) {
      Directory.CreateDirectory(destPath);
      Parallel.ForEach(srcPath.GetDirectories("*", SearchOption.AllDirectories), 
        srcInfo => Directory.CreateDirectory($"{destPath}{srcInfo.FullName[srcPath.FullName.Length..]}"));
      Parallel.ForEach(srcPath.GetFiles("*", SearchOption.AllDirectories), 
        srcInfo => File.Copy(srcInfo.FullName, $"{destPath}{srcInfo.FullName[srcPath.FullName.Length..]}", true));
      });
    }

  }
}

使用方法:

new DirectoryInfo(sourcePath).CopyTo(destinationPath);
