How can I do to move files from the folder windows in memory of the PDA. In the folder windows there are files (. Txt. Bmp, etc ...) I can not move them because they are residing in ROM. I tried with SKTOOL but not move them. How can I do?
you can't delete or move which is pretty much just a copy plus delete
files which are located inside the rom of the device
but you can copy them using total commander

I can't seem to move a folder from my PC (Win7 64bit) to my rooted Android external microSD. Every time I move a file it shows the move but then when I go into the phone its not there.
It doesn't let me move the file onto the microSD card!?!?!?!
What file is it? What are u using to transfer the file, what from? Where are you putting the file?
Most importantly, did u browse to:
/sdcard/external_SD
And make sure it wasn't there instead?

Its a folder filled with my mp3 songs
I am using windows explorer
Using my PC (win7 64bit) via USB port
I am putting them into my microSD directly (in windows explorer it shows my phone and external microSD as 2 separate locations, each with its own letter association).
Yes I checked /sdcard/external_SD... not there not anywhere actually...
Did u use a file manager like astro or root explorer to check?

Yes but I also used windows explorer after disconnecting and then reconnecting via USB and it wasn't there anymore.
It maybe bcoz of errors and bad sectors of ur card, a full format should fix that

Could be a problem with your computer, or the sdcard in your phone. Try a different computer first
Just want to ask, because I can't find some folders when I connect my phone to the PC, like the screenshot folder or obb files in my internal memory, however when I'm using file commander it's there.
I have added an SD card for a friend's G7 Power, however, now when I plug it into the computer and select file transfer, it only shows the SD card and he has some photos in the internal storage that we can't get it out of the phone (they are sitll visible on the Photo app). I found an older thread with similar issue on a Moto G4. The answer at the time was this is an known issue and there's no fix yet. Is this fixed on the G7 Power? Thanks.
I don't have this phone but a way I would try is opening up the gallery app and then looking at the photos details and see if it gives a location
I would then connect phone to PC and do an adb pull of the file/folder
Eg adb pull location of file
Google adb guldes if you have never used adb before & you need to download the adb files
You can also try using total commander file browser and going to the file system root directory and then selecting storage folder
It will then list the available storage folders but if sd card is mounted as Internal storage it might combine the internal storage and sd card into one virtual directory

I tried opening the photos in the Google Photo app, it doesn't show the files' location. I'll try it with the the OnePlus gallery app next time he brings over the phone.
As for using total commander, does it work if his phone is not rooted? With ES Files explorer I can only see the SD card folders.

Most photo apps should tell you the photo location on the device in its details or more information section if you long press the image
You don't need root access to access the root directory
You can probably do it with es file explorer too but I don't use it
You just need to keep going up a level until you reach the root location - with total commander there's a folder on the main menu for root directory
You only need root to access the data partition or to modify files in the root or system partition
All you need is access the storage folder which will then list all available drives be that physical or virtual
