SharePoint Sites Not Listed in new GUI for Move To and Copy To
I have already contacted Microsoft support but unfortunately, they only lookup articles. I'm not syncing these sites with File Explorer either as 1 site is 1Tb in size with over 1 million files.
I have 2 subsites that are classic sites that I simply want to move files between. The new GUI shows "Quick Access" sites which I have no idea how it lists the sites there, click on More Places and all you get is "Recent Sites" and "Your Teams". Before, you could keep clicking More Places until you found your site.
If the site doesn't or won't appear in Recent or Quick Access, how do you move files? Is this not basic functionality?

luvsql you need to enable the ”new experience” on thos libraries. After that you can also try to ”Follow” the site)s). Then they should be visible as ”targets when you use ”Move to” and ”Copy to”.
- luvsqlSteel ContributorOur libraries are already configured with "New Experience" and already follow these for use with Office Desktop access. The new GUI also does not have the "Following" like it does within Excel or Word, instead only has Quick Access, Recent and Your Teams.
I clicked on the "Pin to Quick Access" and it showed up immediately. Not even Microsoft knew that was there.- MagnusGoksoyrOLDProfileBronze Contributor

Why is this even a thing. How hard is it to just make your product usable? I have reported this and chatted to so many support guys at Microsoft and all are useless and do nothing.
