Hi Lakshmanan,

Thank you for your response on this. I have achieved it running the powershell script. Here is the link 

https://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/97063/powershell-script-to-move-copy-files-from-network-path-to-sharepoint-sub-folder/97077

Here is the thing, i just want to move the files, when i run that script i still see the files in the source.

Any suggestions on modifying the script to move the files.

NOTE: I used Move-item cmd but its deleting the entire folder too from the source.

Thanks,

Mike

Hi Mike,

As a workaround, you can add “Remove-item ” command to remove the relevant files in the network driver.

Best regards,
