Just like the older version, you can right-click on the file, and a menu will appear with the Move to feature. When using Drive, the three tabs labeled “Suggested,” “Starred,” and “All locations” will likely catch your eye. With the addition of the names and details of the file shows. You can see how this works in the GIF image below.

With the addition of the context menu, you will also be shown whether the folder you are moving to is empty or not and some more neat accessibility features. Such as ‘View Only Folder.’

The redesigned feature is available for Google Drive premium subscribers and premium workspace users. Beware, this update does not mean a new update but a makeover of an already existing feature.
