VERIFY

For example, you can use this command to make sure data is not written to a bad sector. You can use this command either at the command prompt or in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Syntax VERIFY [ON|OFF] Switch ON|OFF Specifies whether MS-DOS should verify (ON) or not verify (OFF) that write operations are done correctly.

For information about verifying files as you copy them, see the /V switch in the <COPY> or <XCOPY> command.
