Answer

Copying means just copy the particular data at another location and it remains intact at its previous location, while moving data means copying same data into another location and it gets removed from it's original location.

Answer

Answer

The move and copy commands are essential functions in every operating system, including Windows, Mac OS and Linux. The commands are also found in the applications running on top, from word processors to image editors, as well as Web-based apps and file systems. Understanding the difference between the two can help you stay in control of where your data is.

Moving Data and Files

Moving data and files, whether it's a block of text in your word processor or a folder on your hard drive, transfers something wholesale from one point to another. The original content is gone from its initial location once the move command has been completed. Moving files, folders and data is often referred to as "cutting and pasting" and can be achieved with the "Ctrl+X" (or "Command+X" on a Mac) cut and "Ctrl+V" ("Command+V") paste keyboard shortcuts.

Copying Data and Files

Copying a file, folder or piece of content means duplicating it. It appears in its new location and remains in its old one too. The associated keyboard shortcuts are "Ctrl+C" (or "Command+C" on a Mac) to copy whatever is selected and "Ctrl+V" ("Command+V") to paste it into a new location. When the copy process has finished, you are left with two identical versions of the same file, folder, block of text or image.

When to Move

Moving files and folders around is useful for organizing a drive without creating duplicates. It enables you to keep one version of whatever you are moving, be it an image file, a block of cells in a spreadsheet or a folder of documents. Be careful to complete the move command as quickly as possible, otherwise your original data could be overwritten and lost in the meantime.

When to Copy

Copying is useful for creating backups or duplicate versions of something, whether you're working with a group of files, a set of folders or a collection of images. The only downside is that you can be left with extra copies of data that you don't really need. Use the copy command when you want to make sure that the original content is kept untouched and safe. Copied files and folders can be renamed and edited independently of the originals.
