How to Move and Copy a Downloaded File to Another Folder on Samsung Galaxy Tab S6

This post shows the difference between moving and copying files on the Galaxy Tab S6. Here’s how to move and copy a downloaded file to another folder on the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 tablet.

Android 10 File Management

Just like computers, Android devices also have a file manager tool that allows users to organize various types of files. Such a tool is called My Files.

Every file you have on  your tablet is stored in the My Files app. This app is like the File Explorer on a Windows PC or Finder on a Mac. Thus, this is where you should go whenever you’re looking for some files on your smartphone or tablet.

With the My Files app, you can easily move or copy different types of files such as Word or Google documents, images, videos, audio files, and downloads to different locations.

And here’s how it’s done.

Easy Steps to Move and Copy a Downloaded File to Another Folder on the Tab S6

Unlike move, the copy command will let you create a copy of the same file to a different location or folder while retaining the original file. This means that the original file remains in the Downloads folder while the copied file in the other folder serves as the backup.

Just repeat the same steps if you wish to copy another file from the downloads folder.

And that’s how you move and copy downloaded contents from the system Downloads to a different folder on your Samsung Galaxy Tab S6.

Unable to Move or Copy Files?

If you encounter an error while trying to move or copy files from the internal storage, review your device’s write permissions and make sure they’re allowed.

Rebooting and resetting all system settings on the device without deleting any data can also help.

If you see any error message, read and review the entire message prompt as it usually tells you what went wrong and what to do in order to fix the error.
