You don't tell what doesn't work. So just a few remarks.
- don't use @echo off while testing
- why a label without a goto?
- I think the "start " is unnecessary, althoug maybe it has some other effect if you remove it
- the first line might work, if that file source file exists and you have write access to the target folder
- the last line only works if the batch file is in the Desktop folder also; if not you either have to add a line with cd before that line, or add the folder to the filename
- this file doesn't replicate - it only duplicates
