Mimic File.Move if the destination already exists

Question

From the documentation of File.Move:

Note that if you attempt to replace a file by moving a file of the same name into that directory, you get an IOEx

Answer 1

I suggest you to probe first if the target file exists and if yes, delete it. Then execute a normal move operation.

Since this sequence is not atomic, in case the destination exists you might want to rename it instead of deleting it, to avoid losing it in case the move fails.
