Hi, I'm new here and 3 days into Vista. I bought a new laptop, and like
new programs etc., so I thought I'd give vista a whirl. I don't have an
opinion about it yet. I have:
an Intel Pentium dual-core processor T2390 at 1.86GHz.

Does anyone know how to move files and folders to another location
without drag n drop, or copying and pasting? I can't seem to find any
folder tasks.

Thanks for answering this first in what I'm sure will be 1 million
questions...

Hello, you can add COPY TO or MOVE TO on the right click of windows explorer
if you add a registry key

you can find it here http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

scroll down to line 45 where it says "Add Copy To/Move To (Right Click)"

download that reg file and then double click it to add it to your registry.

This works with VISTA 100% since I have it on several machines

He is referring to a post of his that I will paste below in this thread. He
is accessing the newsgroup via some FORUM it seems, so he might not even
know this is a newsgroup

His post:

HI lycialover,

click the link below to get to the tutorial . Use the download to add
copy to and move to functions to your right click menu - it will save
you hours of dragging & dropping

http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/89196-context-menu-add-copy-folder-move-folder.html

Hope it helps

You don't even need to do that. Just go to Windows Explorer, click on
Organize, then Layout then make sure that Menu Bar is checked then
you'll have access to Copy and Move under Edit at the top of every
Windows Explorer windows from that time forward until you uncheck Menu
Bar.
