Move Directory or File in Windows PowerShell
How to move a directory or file to a new location in Windows PowerShell? Can I use the old "move" command?

Yes, you can still use the old "move" command in Windows PowerShell. But "move" is defined as an alias of the "Move-Item" cmdlet.
The "Move-Item" cmdlet moves an item, including its properties, contents, and child items, from one location to another location. For example, it can move a file or subdirectory from one directory to another or move a registry subkey from one key to another. When you move an item, it is added to the new location and deleted from its original location.
The "Move-Item" cmdlet requires 2 minimum parameters:
The example commands below shows how to use the "Move-Item" cmdlet to move a file:
PS C:\fyicenter> # Moving a directory PS C:\fyicenter> Move-Item temp C:\temp PS C:\fyicenter> # Moving a file PS C:\fyicenter> Move-Item C:\temp\temp\temp.txt C:\temp PS C:\fyicenter> dir C:\temp\temp* Directory: C:\temp Mode LastWriteTime Length Name ---- ------------- ------ ---- d---- 5/1/2016 7:11 PM temp -a--- 5/1/2016 7:12 PM 16 temp.log
