I tried batch Moved as well but that's also not working for me . Suppose I have 20 files in one folder and i try to move that folder to another with files it's moving but out of 20 only 13 files moved and other seven not remain in that folder so i am asking for any way or method that can help me to move entire folder as fast as possible and give me some code as well for moving 20 files from one folder to another it's request.
(2)so are you saying that i can't move file parallel in c#?

Dropbox StaffIf you want to move individual files or folders, using MoveV2Async is the right way to do so. In that case though, if you have multiple to move, you would do need to do so serially, as calling MoveV2Async multiple times in parallel will likely cause lock contention.
If you want to move multiple items at one time, it's better to use one call to MoveBatchV2Async instead. That will allow you to move multiple items at once without causing lock contention with yourself. It is still possible for this to hit lock contention with other activity in the account though, so you do still need to implement error handling around this.
It sounds like you already tried that, so if it's not working as expected, please share the relevant code and error you're getting.
