I moved files to a micro SD card but can't move them back again.

I own a Galaxy A4 Lite tablet, and the other day, I fitted it with a micro SD card. There were several websites I had downloaded from Google to read offline, so to free up the internal storage, I moved them to the card, but then Google wouldn't recognise them, and if I clicked on any of them, I got 'there is no app on the tablet that can open this file'.

Fair enough, I thought - I'll just move them back to where they had been (which was 'downloads' in internal storage. but when I tried to do this, the 'move here' option was greyed out. So it seems I've moved these files to a place the tablet can't read them, and I can't move them back again. What should I do?

Welcome to Android Central! Which app did you use to move the files? What kinds of files are they? What directory on the card did you move them to?
