In order to move a file into a new folder, first you will need to open the two folders in File Explorer. Once you have them open side-by-side, select the file you wish to move by clicking on it once. You can then drag and drop the file from the source folder into the destination folder or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+X to cut it from the source folder and CTRL+V to paste it into the destination folder.
If you prefer to use the menus in File Explorer, you can also move files between folders by right-clicking on the file, selecting “Cut” from the menu and then navigating to the destination folder and right-clicking again and selecting “Paste.”
You can also move multiple files at once. To move multiple files, first select them by using the keyboard shortcuts of Shift+click (to select a continuous list of files) or Ctrl+click (to select multiple non-continuous files). Then you can drag and drop all of the selected files into the destination folder or use one of the methods listed above.
If you would like to move a folder to a new location, the process is very similar. First navigate to both the source and destination folders in File Explorer and select the folder you wish to move. Then you can drag and drop the folder into the destination folder or use the same keyboard shortcut or menu as before.
One final way to move files or folders to new locations is to use the “Move To” option. To use this feature, select the file or folder you wish to move, right-click on it, and select “Move to” from the menu. A dialog window will appear, allowing you to specify the destination path. You can type in the path directly or use the “Browse” button to find the destination folder. When you are finished, click “Move” and the item will be moved to the new location.
In summary, there are several ways to move files and folders to a new location in File Explorer. Depending on your preference, you can drag and drop, use the keyboard shortcuts Ctrl+X and Ctrl+V, use the “Move To” option, or use the right-click menu to cut and paste the desired files or folders.
