# How do I move or copy files in Delta Drive?

Drag a file or folder onto another folder to **move** it; hold **⌥ Option** at the moment you drop to **copy** it instead. You can drag several selected items at once, and drop onto a folder in the breadcrumb trail to move something up a level.

Right-click for **Rename…**, **Get info**, **Copy name** and **Move to Trash**. In a browser you also get **Cut**, **Copy**, **Paste** and **Move to…** with a folder picker.
