Cutting copying and pasting items
If authorized, you can use copy and paste to copy items between the Folders within a Publication, but not across Publications. In Windows Explorer, use the context menu or the Edit menu to select the necessary copy and paste options.
Although copy-paste always works, cut-paste raises an error, "Cannot read from source". So to perform a cut-paste, that is, to move an item, perform a copy-paste, then delete the item in the old location. This preserves the version history of your item. Better yet, you can avoid all complications by performing these kinds of operations in the Content Manager Explorer.
