Drag to the New Location in a View Pane

To drag a file or folder to a new location in a view pane, perform the following steps:

  1. Open a file manager window. Choose File -> New Window to open a second file manager window.

  2. In one window, select the folder from which you want to move the file or folder. In the other window, select the folder to which you want to move the file or folder.

  3. Drag the file or folder that you want to move to the new location in the other window.

To move the file or folder to a folder that is one level below the current location, do not open a new window. Instead, drag the file or folder to the new location in the same window.
