Overloads

MoveFile(String, String)

MoveFile(String, String, UIOption)

MoveFile(String, String, Boolean)

Moves a file to a new location.

MoveFile(String, String, UIOption, UICancelOption)

Moves a file to a new location.

MoveFile(String, String)

Moves a file to a new location.

public:
 static void MoveFile(System::String ^ sourceFileName, System::String ^ destinationFileName);
public static void MoveFile (string sourceFileName, string destinationFileName);
static member MoveFile : string * string -> unit
Public Shared Sub MoveFile (sourceFileName As String, destinationFileName As String)

Parameters

sourceFileName
String

Path of the file to be moved.

destinationFileName
String

Path of the directory into which the file should be moved.

Exceptions

The path is not valid for one of the following reasons: it is a zero-length string; it contains only white space; it contains invalid characters; or it is a device path (starts with \\.\); it ends with a trailing slash.

destinationFileName is Nothing or an empty string.

The source file is not valid or does not exist.

The file is in use by another process, or an I/O error occurs.

The path exceeds the system-defined maximum length.

A file or directory name in the path contains a colon (:) or is in an invalid format.

The user lacks necessary permissions to view the path.

Examples

This example moves the file Test.txt from TestDir1 to TestDir2.

My.Computer.FileSystem.MoveFile("C:\TestDir1\test.txt", "C:\TestDir2\test.txt")

This example moves the file Test.txt from TestDir1 to TestDir2 and renames it Test2.txt.

My.Computer.FileSystem.MoveFile("C:\TestDir1\test.txt", "C:\TestDir2\test2.txt")

Remarks

If the target structure does not exist, it is created.

The MoveFile method preserves ACEs (Access Control Entries) only when moving the file within the same volume. This includes inherited ACEs, which become direct ACEs when moved (direct ACEs take precedence over inherited ACEs). If a file is moved between volumes, ACEs will not be copied.
