How to specify "Copy-PowerShell Element" for error-free copying of files

Question

The following PowerShell script works if there are no resources there.

Copy-Item $src_dir $dst_dir$agent_folder -recurse 

But if there are resources, he will say:

 + Copy-Item <<<< $src_dir $dst_dir$agent_folder -recurse + CategoryInfo : ResourceExists: (C:\Users\Pac\Desktop\Agents\Agent0\lib:S tring) [Copy-Item], IOException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : DirectoryExist,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.CopyItemComm and 

What do I need to add to the command so that it accurately copies files?
