I'm sorry this is totally unnecessary. What group of people in Microsoft decided to remove the MOVE option and have to do this to move a file or folder to another place? I just wasted 4 minutes listening to nothing. How simple was the old and now deleted MOVE function?

I waited 2 whole ass years just to find out its frickin "cut"

Microsoft is run by fucking idiots. That's your answer.

I feel you. The last couple of years I was essentially forced to use a Macbook for specific school assignments, so I haven't been using a Windows system in a while. I felt silly having to look up a video on this due to not being able to find the 'Move' tool that I was so accustomed to in the past. That, and the fact that when you drag files from one folder to another on Mac, it at least allows you to go into the subfolders by hovering over a parent folder. I've been touting for years how much better the 'Move' tool is on PC for quick organization and now here I am finding out that it no longer exists. Overengineering at its finest when something is changed for the sake of change.

I would just like to have the "move" option back in the list with cut,copy, and paste. That saved me steps. :/ not happy with having that choice eliminated from a so-called better version of Windows. It's like it regressed.

Unfortunately, every time a new version or update of something comes out it seems like it loses its functionality more than the last time lol

Totally! I can't believe they got rid of the move option! Every upgrade is a downgrade now... same with Adobe Acrobat.

I agree. This is awful. I want my move option back. There must be a way to get it back. My next internet hunt. Unfortunately this video just showed how complicated and difficult it is to simply move a file from one folder to another.

Why did Microsoft have to make such a simple thing more complicated? This is better than simply having the "move" option? One click and done. I thought I was stupid but apparently it's Microsoft who is

Yea I would wish so but there might be a deeper meaning to the "stupid" decisions they make

Lol, I'm right there with ya. Overengineering because someone wanted to change it for the sake of change. I haven't been using Windows in a while, so I felt silly having to look up a video on this due to not being able to find the 'Move' tool. I've been praising Windows for years for having better file management tools only to find out now that it's been removed or changed.

Hold shift when dragging the files and it changes from copy to move

Dude, you're being super nice in showing how to [use Microsoft's stupid "new" way to] move files and not mentioning how stupid Microsoft are by removing a useful and simple 'move' feature that already worked just fine. Your video and those in the comments section have helped me in either case.

They change the name into "cut" instead of "move" , so if you are trying to move a file just click the file then click the cut icon once, after that go to the file you want then paste it, hope it helps.

@@zeppeligyro8340 This is almost like the new math. Cut means cut, not move and one would think it will disappear, rather than hold to move. But, thanks, it coincides with author's use of 'cut' and 'move', which was confusing. Geez.
