    Moving User Files to New Drive

    I Know how to move the file in windows vista from one location of drive in to another drive. The option in properties of folder to move the file we have to just click on Select Locations Tab and insert a new location But if the tab is missing then what is another method to move the file? Any recommendations and suggestions are appreciated.

    Log into Vista using the appropriate account. select the file or folder which you want to copy.Identify a new location for the files. Select a different drive or partition where you want to copy or move that folder. Create a new documents folder. On the hard drive or partition where you decided to move the document type, create a folder. Right click on the folder select "Location" tab and select that location.Vista will relocate them to the new location and set the new folder as the system folder. Click "OK" to exit the folder properties dialog when finished.
