I downloaded the Acquia Mac stack last week and noticed they put their included contrib modules into a folder in /modules/acquia instead of in /sites/all/modules. I am sure they had a good reason, but when I need to update those I have a decision to make. Also if I use this stack to develop locally I will have to decide whether to copy that arrangement to a live server or not. Someone from the outside looking in might say I was doing it wrong.

Just moving them should work. You have something else wrong.

I have inherited a website that has third-party modules installed into the modules folder at the root level with the core modules, not sites/all/modules folder. Initially, I tried to move the directories one at at a time into the appropriate folder and the site broke. The core is 6.19.
Would it be best to upgrade the core first?
Should I disable the module, followed by downloading and installing the same module in the correct folder and then re-enabling it?
Should I download and install all of the third party modules in the correct folder first, delete the other inappropriately located folders, and then run update first?

Do I need to recreate the entire site from scratch?
