MOVE

Moves files from one location to another, as opposed to
copying. The MOVE command combines COPY and DELETE by
copying a file then deleting the original.

Syntax

move [{/y|/-y}] [Source] [target]

Parameters

/y   : Suppresses prompting to confirm you want to overwrite
       an existing destination file.

/-y   : Causes prompting to confirm you want to overwrite an
        existing destination file.

Source   : Specifies the path and name of the file or files
           to move. If you want to move or rename a
           directory, Source should be the current directory
           path and name.

target   : Specifies the path and name to move files to. If
           you want to move or rename a directory, target
           should be the desired directory path and name.

Examples

MOVE C:\test.txt A:\test.txt, moves the file "test.txt" from
C:\ to the A: drive.

To move all files with the .xls extension from the \Data
directory to the \Reports directory, type the following:

MOVE \data\*.xls \reports\

You may also use MOVE to rename files in the new location.

Example: MOVE C:\test.txt C:\windows\myfile.txt creates a
copy with a new name and deletes the original. Copies and
deletes a file at the same time.
