[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1166575, member: 38864"] I keep my apps sorted as well, and moved one of my App Store games to my Games subfolder. The App Store continues to recognize it as installed. So it "should" be ok to move it and not miss out on updates. Worst thing that can happen is that you'll have to move it back out temporarily to get an update, but I suspect it's more likely you'd simply wind up the new version in /Applications and the old left in the subfolder. Regardless, you can re-download anything you've ever bought without paying again. [/QUOTE]
