rem Main use to move entire directory/drive without looking at the data before hand or otherwise reading the data more then needed.
rem useful for larger drives/folder sizes with many files. 
rem respects access rights (if you can not get there in command-line, or access/read they file it will skip it)
rem meant to be as light as possible for drives that may not tolerate a lot of data manipulation.
rem Powershell version in the works, for network access.
rem must be local drive w/ letter or mapped network drive that is accessible via mapped drive letter.
rem use of the variable adjustment to avoid multiple inputs that can be referred from a path&Drive letter.
