From me is a Lenovo Tab M10 and today I'll show you how to transfer files from the device
0:12
to an SD card and vice versa. And to get started, let's open up the files app, which will be in the Google folder
0:21
And from here, scroll down and you should see your storage devices
0:25
So there's the internal storage and the SD card. I'm going to start with the internal storage, that's where most likely my files are, that
0:33
I will use as an example. And for the people that might not know where to look for specific files, I'm going to briefly
0:41
go over it. So the DCIM folder, right over here, will contain anything that I have captured with
0:48
the camera. So that would be pictures, videos, they will all be located in here
0:55
Then we have the Downloads folder, which will contain anything that I have downloaded
0:59
on the device, that could be through a web browser or email, and it will all be saved here
1:06
And then below that we have Pictures, which will contain screenshots, as you can see right here
1:12
And rest of the folders, there's also a Screen Recording folder, so obviously Screen Recorder
1:20
will save into it. And rest of the folders will usually be empty
1:26
Now, as you can see, there's a bunch of weird ones like TBS, Tencent, and stuff like that
1:32
Those are from games and different applications. By default, there is way less folders, and normally the ones that come, well, Android
1:43
makes by default things like the Alarm, Android Audio, Movies, Music, Notifications, Podcasts
1:53
Those folders are primarily empty, assuming you haven't downloaded an app that actually
1:58
saves something into it. But once you find your files, which mine are right over here, you want to select your files
2:09
So you do it by simply holding a single one, and as you can see, it becomes checked right
2:13
here, and then you can tap on additional ones to add them on if you want multiple
2:18
Now, if you want the entire folder full of photos, you don't have to select every item
2:24
in the folder. You can simply go back and select the entire folder along with all of its content
2:32
So it's completely up to you how you go about it. I'm just going to select like five of these, there we go
2:39
So once you have selected it, tap on the three dots, and you will have two options, either
2:43
Move or Copy to, so select whichever one suits you. Copy will create a duplicate of the files that are selected and allow them to move them
2:55
to a new location, while the original will stay where it is, while Move will completely
2:59
remove those files from where they are and move them to a new location
3:03
So like I said, select whichever one you want, I'm going to go with Move, and once you choose
3:08
one of the options, you will see this pop-up right here, so select where you want to move
3:12
it, to Internal Storage or SD Card. Now, these photos are right now on the Internal Storage, and I could change just where they
3:20
are located on the Internal Storage, or I can go with a completely different storage
3:25
like SD Card. And once you select it, it will open up the SD Card and all of its content
3:32
And from here, you can either drop it right here, go to the DCIM, maybe drop it here
3:37
it's completely up to you. But once you're in the folder that you want to move it to, tap on Move here, or Copy here
3:44
Allow, and as you can see, there's the progress, and there we go, it moved a couple photos
3:50
And if I now go into the SD Card, you can see these photos right over here
3:57
So, the same process works for any kind of file, it's not only pictures and folders
4:04
it basically documents any kind of file that has the same way of being moved
4:11
