Move media in the folder tree

When you drag and drop a file to a different folder you may notice that it will ask to make a copy of the file instead of moving it permanently.

If that is your intention, say YES when asked to create a copy.

Moving forward, enter the file, in preview mode (simply double click it), and scroll down until you find the folder tree section. You will notice it mentions all of the paths in which it is currently on.

By creating a copy, your file is now in two places and, to remove from the old folder, simply click the X button on the right.
