Default Moving folders doesn'r remove original folder

I have three subfolders (let's call them A,B,and C, Using drag and drop I
selected to copy A and B in to C. that went OK. Without making any changes I
then decided to use drag and drop again this time selecting to MOVE and B
into C. At the end A and B were still there.

Folders A and B are in both folder C (where I MOVED them) and the original
position. Here's what I did:

Select folders A and B
Right click on them and drag to folder C
Select Copy Here on the menu.
Open folder C
Folders A and B appear as they should
Close folder C
Select folders A and B
Right click on them and drag to folder C
Select Move here on the menu
Select in the dialogs to Merge the folders
After the MOVE is finished, folder A and B are not removed from the original
folder.
