I'm trying to move a folder into another folder in terminal, but when I enter this line:
mv South_America /North_America
South_America just completely disappears. It didn't move into the North_America folder? or go into my trash.
How do I move a folder?
/North_America
may not be what you intended.mv: cannot move Sourth America to /North\ America: Permission denied
, if done without sudo, right ? and if he did is with sudo, then the/North\ America
folder would be created , right ? I mean, i tested this with empty folder just now, same syntax as OP, so, I guess OP's files are safe and sound in that/North\ America
directory
