One of the things I love about GMail is the one-click ability to move files out of my inbox without throwing them out.

What's the best way to add a hook to Windows Explorer (Windows 7) to do the same for my local files? Ideally, it would be a right-click menu item (or keyboard shortcut) to move (not just copy) the files to C:\User\USERID\Archive, or something like that, and automatically rename conflicting files.

Probably an autohotkey script to copy/move it to an archive folder – Sathya♦ Jan 6 at 15:05

Are you meaning e-mail within something like Outlook, or local files? – HaydnWVN Jan 6 at 15:31

It might be worth noting that 'archiving' an email in Gmail does not actually 'move it' anywhere, it simply removes the 'inbox' label. – w3d Jan 6 at 15:38
@HaydnWVN local files. w3d is right that they're not exactly comparable, but that's what it seems like. – Arithmomaniac Jan 8 at 16:37
So your question is local files and not at all e-mail related... – HaydnWVN Jan 9 at 10:09
