  2. Directory (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directory_(computing)

    Caveats include not being able to write to a directory file except indirectly by creating, renaming and removing file system objects in the directory and only being able to read from a directory file using directory-specific library routines and system calls that return records, not a byte-stream. [4]

  3. Windows Shell namespace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Shell_namespace

    Folder objects, which are containers for file objects and other folders called subdirectories, are the nodes of the tree, while file objects are the leaves of the namespace tree. Objects in the Shell namespace can represent physically stored file system objects such as files and folders, or can be virtual objects such as the My Network Places ...

  5. Compound File Binary Format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_File_Binary_Format

    The CFBF file consists of a 512-Byte header record followed by a number of sectors whose size is defined in the header. The literature defines Sectors to be either 512 or 4096 bytes in length, although the format is potentially capable of supporting sectors ranging in size from 128-Bytes upwards in powers of 2 (128, 256, 512, 1024, etc.).

  7. File system API - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_system_API

    Information about the data in a file is called metadata. Some of the metadata is maintained by the file system, for example last-modification date (and various other dates depending on the file system), location of the beginning of the file, the size of the file and if the file system backup utility has saved the current version of the files.

  8. File size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_size

    File size is a measure of how much data a computer file contains or how much storage space it is allocated. Typically, file size is expressed in units based on byte. A large value is often expressed with a metric prefix (as in megabyte and gigabyte) or a binary prefix (as in mebibyte and gibibyte). [1]

  9. Directory structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directory_structure

    A filename is a string used to uniquely identify a file stored on this structure. Before the advent of 32-bit operating systems, file names were typically limited to short names (6 to 14 characters in size).
