# rclone moveto
2017-01-02 23:30:34 +08:00
Move file or directory from source to dest.
## Synopsis
2017-01-02 23:30:34 +08:00
If source:path is a file or directory then it moves it to a file or
directory named dest:path.
This can be used to rename files or upload single files to other than
their existing name. If the source is a directory then it acts exactly
2022-07-10 01:08:20 +08:00
like the [move](/commands/rclone_move/) command.
2017-01-02 23:30:34 +08:00
So
rclone moveto src dst
where src and dst are rclone paths, either remote:path or
/path/to/local or C:\windows\path\if\on\windows.
This will:
if src is file
move it to dst, overwriting an existing file if it exists
if src is directory
move it to dst, overwriting existing files if they exist
see move command for full details

This doesn't transfer files that are identical on src and dst, testing
by size and modification time or MD5SUM. src will be deleted on
successful transfer.

**Important**: Since this can cause data loss, test first with the
2020-09-02 23:59:04 +08:00
`--dry-run` or the `--interactive`/`-i` flag.

**Note**: Use the `-P`/`--progress` flag to view real-time transfer statistics.
