 Mo> js.global.file_copy(dir[i], path1 + backslash()+ dir[i].toLowerCase() +
 Mo> '.bak');

You don't need to specify js.global except in rare situations.  Normally, just saying file_copy or file_rename without prefix is sufficient.

 Mo> js.global.file_copy(dir[i], path1 + backslash()+ dir[i].toLowerCase() +
 Mo> '.bak');

IIRC dir[i] here includes the full path to the file, so your destination (path1 + backslash() + dir[i].toLowerCase() + '.bak') also has it.

You can use file_getname() to extract just the filename portion of a path:

file_copy(dir[i], backslash(path1) + file_getname(dir[i]) + '.bak');

This might achieve what you're looking for.

Many of these file_* methods return boolean to indicate success/failure, so there may not be an error, but the return value should be false if the operation failed.
