title: How to use -recurse with Move-item in Powershell
body: <p>I have created a simple powershell script in which it copies files from a source folder to a destination which is having same directory structure. </p>
  
  <pre><code>$source_path ="C:\Akash\Working\Source\*"
  
  $backupPath="C:\Akash\Working\Dest"
  
  copy-Item $source_path $backupPath  -Recurse   -EA "silentlycontinue"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It works fine, but when I try it with move-item in place of copy-item, it throws me an error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Move-Item : A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'Recurse'.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Someone please suggest here...</p>
