A. It's possible to add a context menu option to move a file to a folder by adding the following registry key:
Start the registry editor (Regedit.exe)
Move to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTAllFilesystemObjectsshellexContextMenuHandlers
From the Edit menu select New - Key
Enter a name of 'Move To' (don't type the quotes) and press Enter
Move to the 'Move To' :-) key and double click on the (Default) value
Set to {C2FBB631-2971-11D1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}. Click OK

Restart Explorer for the change to take effect (you don't need to reboot)
If you now right click on a file/folder an option to move to folder will be listed.
Click here to download a reg file which makes the change automatically.
