Moving the site around is pretty simple.
After you've moved all the files. Just edit settings.php to remove the subfolder. Then log in at admin and go to Admin panel> configure > location installed > and make sure the information in there is correct. If you are using an .htaccess file, you want to edit the new location in there as well..
