Hi,

I agree with jrv.

You could have a try to use UNC path in Copy-Item cmdlet, the following example scripts for your reference:

Copy-Item -Path '\\server1\C$\file.txt' -Destination '\\server2\D$\file.txt'

In addition, you might also refer to the following links for copying to or from a PowerShell session. Hope it is helpful to you:

You do not need a session.  Sessions are useful when crossing domains and using multiple sets fo credentials.

Copy-item \server1\c$\folder\file.ext \server2\c$\otherfolder\file.ext

That is all you need to do.

Copy-Item will copy files anywhere without remoting.

Please don't cover you posts with colors or dark blots.  It is unreadable with most browsers.

Hi,

Based on my research, you could have a try with the following scripts. Hope it is helpful to you:

$destinations = '\\server1\share', '\\server2\share', '\\server3\share'
foreach ($destination in $destinations)
{
    Copy-Item -Path '\\server\share\test.txt' -Destination $destination
}

If you need further help, please feel free to let us know.
