            All the data stored on your computer’s hard disk consists of files and folders.
            Basically, files are used to store data and folders are used to store and organize

            files and other folders.

                FILES AND FOLDERS


            A file is a document that you may find on someone’s desk or in a filing cabinet.
            It is an item that contains a collection of related information. Similarly, a file in a
            computer can be a text document, spreadsheet, picture, music or even movie.

            A file in a computer system is represented by an icon. Here are some common file

            icons:










                Document file       Spreadsheet file      Image file          Video file          Music file

            A folder is like a file cabinet in which you can keep your files. In other words, a

            folder is a collection of files.
