OneDrive: Move files from a directory to root directory

[Harry]

It's very simple but I can't get it to work.

rclone move onedrive:mydir/** onedrive: -vv

What I want is move all the contents of mydir to root directory. But it does not work.

hi, as per docs, "Rclone will error if the source and destination overlap "

one option is to use rclone mount and then use a local file manager to move the mydir

onedrive:mydir/** does not look correct.
so i did a quick test

rclone.exe copy wasabi01:en07/kdbx/** wasabi01:en07/zzzz  --dry-run -vv
There was nothing to transfer

so i would use onedrive:mydir
