I want to copy/paste a file from one folder to another folder in windows using R, but it's not working. My code: > file.rename(from="C:/Users/msc2/Desktop/rabata.txt",to="C:/Users/msc2/Desktop/Halwa/BADMASHI/SCOP/rabata.tx") [1] FALSE If you wanted a file.rename() -like function that would also create any directories needed to carry out the rename, you could try something like this: my.file.rename <- function(from, to) { todir <- dirname(to) if (!isTRUE(file.info(todir)$isdir)) dir.create(todir, recursive=TRUE) file.rename(from = from, to = to) } my.file.rename(from = "C:/Users/msc2/Desktop
