Read/Write/Transfer from thumb drive

Good day everyone...

Newbie here. i would just like to ask if it is possible for an arduino to read/access/navigate from a thumb drive then duplicate/transfer/relocate a file/directory within the same thu,bdrive or another thumb drive???? just wondering possibilities for future projects. THANK YOU ARDUINO!

A thumb drive is a USB slave. An Arduino is a USB slave. All that two slaves do, without a master around is sit around and drink all your beer.

A USB Host shield lets you create a master, by writing a USB driver.

I suspect that if you knew how to write a USB driver, you wouldn't need to ask these questions.
