I'm looking for a way to programmatically cut a file to the clipboard, for example, some call to a function in C# that does the same as selecting a file in the Windows Explorer and pressing Ctrl + X.
After running the program and pressing Ctrl + V in some other folder on the hard drive, the original file would be moved to the new folder. By looking at Stack Overflow question Copy files to clipboard in C#, I know that it's easy to do the copy job, but cutting seems to work different. How can I do this?

Just to see what happens, I replaced the MemoryStream with a DragDropEffects like this:

Apparently, it works as a genuine cut rather than a copy! (This was on Windows 7 - I have not tried other operating systems). Unfortunately, it works only coincidentally. For example,
does not yield a copy (still a cut). It seems that a non-null causes a cut, a null a copy.

I like to wrap code like this in an API that makes sense. I also like to avoid magic strings of bytes where I can.
I came up with this extension method that solves the mystery that @Keith was facing in his answer, effectively using the Ronnie OverbyRonnie Overby
DragDropEffects enum.
