In addition to moving or copying files in SharePoint, you can also sync SharePoint files with the OneDrive sync app.
Note: If you don't see other sites listed when you attempt to move or copy items, your organization doesn't allow moving or copying across sites. If you're a SharePoint admin or global admin for your organization, see Allow or prevent custom script to learn how to enable cross-site copying in the SharePoint admin center.
Select your version of SharePoint from one of the tabs below:
STEP 1:
Select files or folders in a SharePoint library.
STEP 2:
Click the More icon 
on the command bar, then select Move to or Copy to.
Note: Switch to the modern experience if Move to or Copy to isn't available.
STEP 3:
On the Move or Copy panel, choose a destination in the current library, OneDrive, or another SharePoint site. (SharePoint Server 2019 currently only supports the current library.)
STEP 4:
On the Move or Copy panel, select a folder in the current library and select Move here or Copy here. If you want to move or copy your files to a new folder, select New folder to add a new folder. Enter a name for the folder, click the check mark, and then select Move here or Copy here.
Notes:
-
When you use Move to, the history of the document is copied to the new destination. When you use Copy to with documents that have version history, only the latest version is copied. To copy earlier versions, you need to restore and copy each one. For more info about versioning, see Enable and configure versioning for a list or library.
-
When a file is moving, it continues to appear in the source directory until it's fully moved to the destination and then it will be deleted. The file will remain in the source sites recycle bin after the Move is complete and be subject to the normal recycle schedule unless a user recovers it from the recycle bin.
