Get Search Index Location in SharePoint 2013

As far as I know the page (/_admin/search/searchconfigwizardtopologyconfig.aspx) where you can add, remove, or modify components of the topology of the Search Service Application e.g. the index location in SP 2010 is no longer available. So if you would like to get your Search Index Location then you could use the following PowerShell script.
$searchSrvInst = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceInstance
$searchSrvInst.Components

Can't read from source file or disk

When you are using Windows Explorer View in SharePoint you can't MOVE a file from one site to another if it's not directly below the root site, but you can copy the file. See the different scenarios below. Working Scenario Moving files between libraries within the same site. For example: "http://sharepointsite/sites/site1/site2/library1" (source) "http://sharepointsite/sites/site1/site2/library2" (destination) Moving files between libraries across different sites as long as they are directly below the root site. For example: "http://sharepointsite/site1/library1 (source) "http://sharepointsite/site2/library2 (destination) Non-working Scenario Moving files between libraries in sub-sites that are more than 1 level below the root site. For example: "http://sharepointsite/sites/site1/site1/library1" (source) "http://sharepointsite/sites/site1/site2/library2" (destination)
