Moving Files From One Hard Drive to another
« on: Yesterday at 05:35:34 pm »
I am currently using MC 34 and purchasing a larger External Hard Drive for storage and am wondering if there is a way to transfer the files through MC34
My issue is I have managed to save file in many different roots on my old hard drive and my goal is to have them in one root onto a new hard drive using MC34

Thank you in advance

Other people may have better suggestions.  Here is my suggestion.  Because you are going to substantially reorganize your music using a different folder structure, I strongly recommend doing this change using MC and NOT using commands outside of MC.  You may/will have a mess if you do it outside of MC

MC offers ways to do this using the file explorer view in the tree.  You should be able to do move groups of files within MC to your new structure.  It is not difficult.  DO IT ALL INSIDE MC.
