Python - How to move file to another directory

Python provides multiple ways to move a file to another directory. You can use the following methods:

• os.rename()
• shutil.move()

import os
import shutil
 
os.rename("path/to/file.docx", "new/destination/file.docx")
shutil.move("path/to/file.docx", "new/destination/file.docx")

Note: You must include the filename(file.docx) in both the source and destination arguments. If the filename is changed, then the file will be renamed as well as moved.
