Move files from a special folder to another special folder - windows

Question

I'm writing a script to move an Outlook signature into %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Signatures\ and it's just not going as planned.
I want to instruct the user to put the "signature" folder on their desktop, and then run a script that will move all of the items in the signature folder to the AppData folder.
I've been reading, and it looks like it's not as simple as just putting %userprofile%\Desktop\signatures\* into VBScript or PowerShell code. I don't understand why Windows Explorer knows what to do with that path, but PowerShell/VBScript doesn't know what a special folder is, but whatever the case, my code just isn't working.
Here's an example of what I'm trying to do with VBScript:
Dim desktop
Dim appdata
desktop = object.SpecialFolders("Desktop")
appdata = object.SpecialFolders("APPDATA")
With CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
.MoveFile desktop\MET_Signature_Template\*, appdata\Microsoft\Signatures\test\
End With
I get a syntax error, but no direction on why it's wrong. I've tried a few different things I've found on here to no avail.

When in doubt, read the documentation.
Syntax
object.SpecialFolders(objWshSpecialFolders)
Arguments
object
WshShell object.
Change this:
desktop = object.SpecialFolders("Desktop")
appdata = object.SpecialFolders("APPDATA")
into this:
Set sh = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
desktop = sh.SpecialFolders("Desktop")
appdata = sh.SpecialFolders("APPDATA")
Build source and destination paths using the BuildPath method:
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
source = fso.BuildPath(desktop, "MET_Signature_Template")
destination = fso.BuildPath(appdata, "Microsoft\Signatures\test")
fso.MoveFile source & "\*", destination & "\"
In PowerShell you'd do it like this:
$source = "$env:APPDATA\MET_Signature_Template"
$destination = Join-Path [Environment]::GetFolderPath('Desktop') 'Microsoft\Signatures\test'
Copy-Item "$source\*" $destination
