You have not allocated any buffer for newFileName, so when you use it in the StringCchPrintf it's just an uninitialized pointer.

Try this:

TCHAR newFile[260]; // or whatever length you wish
LPTSTR newfilename = &newFile[0];

Also you should check the return code from MoveFile, and output something sensible on error. Make a habit of doing this for all your function calls that can return an error.
