I am working on a Memory card with songs on it in a "Music" folder, and would like to place some of them in an un-monitored "Spare" folder.
Tried drag and drop so it copies, tried shift-drop, it still copies- ie remains in the source folder.
Tried send to folder, move, it copies but does not delete the original from the list.
Any ideas on why this might not be working, or how this can be done?
ps Tried this also using MM4, and it does not work in the same way.

Latest 5.03 beta, have not tried cut and paste. Will report.
OK just tried that. Ctrl+x in the source folder. Crtl+V in the destination does nothing.
ps Moving files with windows explorer drag and drop works. So why don't I do it that way??? Well, it is handy to see all the tags, and fast sort available in media monkey, and to be able to play the files directly.
Maybe its just a bad day. My polk speakers just stopped working as well.

I can't reproduce. Please capture this in a debug log (step 4b) and attach the log to a Support Ticket: https://mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=86643
This will help a developer analyze why this fails in your setup.

Re: Send-to, move to folder does not work
Testing some more - it seems to work reliably when moving to a different folder on my hardrive, from my main music folder on same hardrive, it disappears from the list as soon as the move is completed.
It was not working when it was being moved from one folder currently listed on a memory card to another folder on the same memory card.

@Lowlander
Send to->
Folder (move)
Folder (copy)
Folders (rip/convert)
I think it should work like exporting the playlists.
With choice of target folder.

I was assuming it's something specific to the SD card. A debug log would show exactly what.
