Move

What is Move?

In the context of cloud storage or file management, move refers to the process of transferring a file or folder from one location to another. Unlike a copy operation, a move operation removes the file or folder from its original location and places it in the new destination.

Key Points:

• The original file or folder is removed from its initial location.

• The file or folder is transferred to a new destination.

• Both the content and metadata (such as name, size, and permissions) are preserved in the new location.

Example:

In QuantaShare, to move a file or folder to a different bucket, you would:

1. Select the file or folder.

2. Use the “Move” action.

3. Choose the new destination (destination bucket).

4. Complete the process by clicking the “Move” button.

The file or folder will no longer exist in its original location and will appear in the new destination.
