I think the OP means in all other apps, cutting means removing the selection and put it in the clipboard until it is pasted somewhere. Windows Explorer override this behavior by turning cut into move, which break the semantic and may create confusion that the file might go away if user didn't choose to paste it, if user have used cut in other program but not Explorer.
