Observaciones

Moving or renaming a file

If <Path of source file> and <New file path> contain the same file name but different access paths, fMoveFile moves the file.
If <Path of source file> and <New file path> contain different file names and different paths, fMoveFile moves and renames the file.
Remarks:
  • In Windows, fMoveFile is equivalent to fRename.

Handling errors

fMoveFile throws an error in the following cases:
  • the file to move does not exist,
  • the file to move is locked,
  • the path of the file to move is invalid,
  • <New file path> or <Path of source file> is an empty string,
  • the new file already exists.

Operating mode in Windows Vista (and later)

If this function does not work properly in Windows Vista (and later), check whether the file or directory used is not in one of the system directories (Windows directory or "Program Files" directory).
In Windows Vista (and later), with the UAC mechanism (User Account Control) enabled, you must have administrator privileges to handle and/or modify the files or directories in system directories (Windows directory or "Program Files" directory).
Programming tip: If you need to manipulate / modify files or directories, without needing administrator privileges, it is advisable:
  • avoid writing to the Windows directory or to the "Program Files" directory,
  • use the system directory of the application (returned by SysDir with the srAppDataCommun constant, for example).
Remark: Under Windows Vista and higher, the virtualization mechanism makes applications "Vista-compatible".. If the file is created in a system directory without having sufficient rights, this file will actually be created in another directory (C:\Users\<LOGIN>AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Windows\). In this case, the file cannot be shared between several applications.
