As indicated in the documentation, All paths are relative to the project folder

You need to use the functions from the System.IO namespace instead.

 public static string GetDirectory(string tag)
 {
     switch (tag)
     {
         case "%Desktop%":
             return Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.DesktopDirectory);
     }
     return null;
 }
 public static string GetAssetPath(string projectPath)
 {
    projectPath = projectPath.Substring("Assets".Length);
    return Application.dataPath + projectPath;
 }
 public void Movefile()
 {
     System.IO.File.Move(
         GetAssetPath("Assets/Music/Background.ogg"),
         GetDirectory("%Desktop%") + "/Background.ogg"
     );
 }
