Copying and Moving Files and FoldersMost people copy and move files using a method called drag and
drop.Start by opening the folder that contains the file or folder you want to
move.Then, open the folder where you want to move it to in a different
window. Position the windows side by side on the desktop so that you can see the contents of both.
Next, drag the file or folder from the first folder to the second folder.
