robocopy would be your friend here.

Usage :: ROBOCOPY source destination [file [file]...] [options]

C:\> robocopy c:\source \\server\destination ubuntu-21.04-desktop-amd64.iso

A simpler program if you didn't need a progress meter would be xcopy:

C:\>xcopy /?
Copies files and directory trees.

XCOPY source [destination]

 /V           Verifies the size of each new file.
 /Z           Copies networked files in restartable mode.
