I'm new to AES encryption in C# so excuse me if this question is a bit stupid. I'm using the current C# code to encrypt and decrypt large files, but I'm stuck figuring out a way to encrypt a lot of files in a certain folder, and then I want them moved into another directory once encrypted. Here's the code I've found in another StackOverflow post it works with encrypting large files very well but i couldn't figure out how to make it encrypt a lot of files in a certain directory and then move those encrypted files into another directory.
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Security.Cryptography;
using System.Text;
...
// Rfc2898DeriveBytes constants:
public readonly byte[] salt = new byte[] { 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00 }; // Must be at least eight bytes. MAKE THIS SALTIER!
public const int iterations = 1042; // Recommendation is >= 1000.
/// <summary>Decrypt a file.</summary>
/// <remarks>NB: "Padding is invalid and cannot be removed." is the Universal CryptoServices error. Make sure the password, salt and iterations are correct before getting nervous.</remarks>
/// <param name="sourceFilename">The full path and name of the file to be decrypted.</param>
/// <param name="destinationFilename">The full path and name of the file to be output.</param>
/// <param name="password">The password for the decryption.</param>
/// <param name="salt">The salt to be applied to the password.</param>
/// <param name="iterations">The number of iterations Rfc2898DeriveBytes should use before generating the key and initialization vector for the decryption.</param>
public void DecryptFile(string sourceFilename, string destinationFilename, string password, byte[] salt, int iterations)
{
AesManaged aes = new AesManaged();
aes.BlockSize = aes.LegalBlockSizes[0].MaxSize;
aes.KeySize = aes.LegalKeySizes[0].MaxSize;
// NB: Rfc2898DeriveBytes initialization and subsequent calls to GetBytes must be eactly the same, including order, on both the encryption and decryption sides.
Rfc2898DeriveBytes key = new Rfc2898DeriveBytes(password, salt, iterations);
aes.Key = key.GetBytes(aes.KeySize / 8);
aes.IV = key.GetBytes(aes.BlockSize / 8);
aes.Mode = CipherMode.CBC;
ICryptoTransform transform = aes.CreateDecryptor(aes.Key, aes.IV);
using (FileStream destination = new FileStream(destinationFilename, FileMode.CreateNew, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.None))
{
using (CryptoStream cryptoStream = new CryptoStream(destination, transform, CryptoStreamMode.Write))
{
try
{
using (FileStream source = new FileStream(sourceFilename, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read))
{
source.CopyTo(cryptoStream);
}
}
catch (CryptographicException exception)
{
if (exception.Message == "Padding is invalid and cannot be removed.")
throw new ApplicationException("Universal Microsoft Cryptographic Exception (Not to be believed!)", exception);
else
throw;
}
}

You can enumerate files in your directory:
foreach (var file in Directory.EnumerateFiles("DirectoryWithRawFilesPath")) { // using System.IO
// Encrypt file
File.Move(file, Path.Combine("DirectoryWithEncryptedFilesPath", file));
}
