Tell AzCopy batch to overwrite files?

azure batch-file scheduled-tasks azcopy

So I'm using an AzCopy which is run manually at the moment but I was to run it through Task Scheduler on one of our servers. This copies files from one container to another and runs perfectly if I manually execute the batch file. However, it asks me:

Overwrite https://.file.core.windows.net// with https://.file.core.windows.net//? (Yes/No/All)

Now this is all great and if I click Yes or All is proceeds with no problems. But if it is scheduled, I loose the ability to click Yes/All and then it hits timeout?

Is there a way or something I'm missing to allow it to continue through this please?

Thanks in advance!

/Y

Suppresses all AzCopy confirmation prompts.
