Hi Kashif,
Following this structure should get it done.
RewriteRule ^subdirectory/(.*)$ /anotherdirectory/$1 [R=301,NC,L]
For your example it would be like
RewriteRule ^FolderA/FolderB/(.*)$ /FolderA/FolderC/FolderB/$1 [R=301,NC,L]
For less then 100 redirects it "may" also be prudent to do them individually. I say this because it makes it very obvious what is going on if you ever need to edit it again. I would use Excel or OpenOffice to create a spreadsheet then just concatenate the cells together, following this example;
Redirect 301 /path/to-old-url https://www.mydomain.com/path/to-new-url

Hope this helps,
Don

If anyone is interested, the url is http://cdkeyprices.com Thanks

Trying to maintain rank while switching back & forth from sitewide 301 to 302 redirects?
My company's website has earned industry "authority" over the years and ranks well for a number of keywords. For reasons not worth explaining, we've moved the entire site (all pages) to be secured (https from http). When we launch our completely new website in 5 months from now, we will launch it as "http:" For the next 5 months, we're stuck with using site-wide "https". Is it better to 301 or 302 all pages (from http -> https), with the intent to move back to 301 in 5 months from now? Obviously, this situation is not ideal, but we'd like to preserve as much authority/presence as possible. What should we do and why? Any input would be greatly appreciated!
