What means to point to an item hold down the left mouse button move the item to the desired location and then release the left mouse button?
Generally when you perform this action, it will move the file from its location to the new one, unless you do this across drives. In that case, you will have dragged a copy of the file to the new drive and the original one will still be in its original place. When you are dragging a file, keep a sharp eye on your mouse cursor while your finger is still holding the left button. If you see an arrow on the file, it means it is about to make a shortcut to the file, but it will still remain at its original location. If it's a plus symbol, it is about to make a copy of it. If you see nothing else, it is about to move the file completely. To completely remove and place a file to another drive, highlight the file, press CTRL+X to cut it from its location (you won't lose it unless a paste action is performed), then go to the other drive, open the folder where you want it to go and press CTRL+V to paste it. If it is a large file, it is safer to press CTRL+C to copy the file instead of cutting it in case it suffers an error in transit and you may lose both. When the copy is successful, you can delete the original.
