My older version of WS_FTP claims to Copy & Paste, but I don't think I can move files either. You may have to re-send & delete old files. :|

I came here looking for the same information. On every other FTP program I've owned it has been a simple click and drag to move files in the server area. I'm really disappointed that such a simple and necessary feature is not available. Now I have to waste a ton more time downloading and uploading all over again. Oh well. So much for an "Upgrade" in my FTP software.

I was able to move a file from the root directory of the server to the "images" folder by renaming the original file (renaming "menu.html" to "images/menu.html"). Unfortunately, I couldn't rename it BACK to the root directory, so I had to upload a replacement from the PC! Oh, well!
