HI  
I have fixed the tags for my music files and now I would like to use the Tag-\>Filename function in order to re-structure the folders/files in new music folder using an expression that starts with x:\newfolder\artists....  
I have two questions:

1. Can I move over what ever is left in the remaining old folders? such as cover.jpg automatically?
2. Can I copy the files to the new structure instead of moving?

Regards  
Danny.
