Description Moves one or more files you specify from source to destination. The same as a copy operation except the source entry is deleted after the copy operation. Wildcards are supported.	Move a File(s) dialog

Parameters

Source
The path of the file(s) you wish to move. This can be an absolute path to one file, or a wildcard to a set of files.

Destination
The full path of the filename you wish to move to. When moving a wildcard path, set the Destination to the folder to move to, followed by a backslash. For example, to move a single zip file, set Source to “c:\source\myfile.zip”, and Destination to “c:\destination\myfile.zip”. To move all zip files from the folder, set Source to “c:\source\*.zip”, and Destination to “C:\MyZipFiles\”

Notes

Be aware when using wildcards that specifying c:\windows\*.* as the source would also move the sub-folders in the Windows folder if there were any (following Windows, not DOS, standards). As of this writing, there is no solution to this behavior except to use a legacy batch file.
