How to move a File in C#

The Move method moves an existing file to a new location with the same or a different file name. The Move method takes two parameters. The Move method deletes the original file.

The following code snippet moves the source file to the destination file. 

string sourceFile = @"C:\Temp\MaheshTX.txt";
string
destinationFile = @"C:\Temp\Data\MaheshTXMoved.txt";

}
