The if not exist checks to see if the directory exists. If it does not, mkdir creates it.

@echo off

echo Backing up the file
set /p source=Enter source folder: 
set /p destination=Enter destination folder: 

if not exist %destination% mkdir %destination%
set listfile=xcopy /L
set xcopy=xcopy /S/E/V/Q/F/H

%listfile% %source% %target%
echo Files listed will be copied.
pause

%xcopy% %source% %destination%

That will help you maybe...

set FOLDER_CURRENT=%cd%
set VERSION= what u want
set FOLDER_SRC= what u want
set FOLDER_OUT= what u want
mkdir %FOLDER_OUT%

echo * Create the file xcopy_EXCLUDE.txt in order to ignore some file and directory.
echo *   - ignore all .au3 files
echo *   - ignore all .pspimage files
echo *   - ignore the \psp\ directory
echo .au3 > xcopy_Exclude.txt
echo .pspimage >> xcopy_Exclude.txt
echo \psp\ >> xcopy_Exclude.txt
echo * The file xcopy_EXCLUDE.txt is created.
