I understand directory to be a technical term for a concept of the file system, strictly related to inodes. Folders are a more general topic, including folders in the Registry or when viewing the old control panel from Explorer.
I'm Calin Baenen – AKA KattyTheEnby – a programmer born October 30th, 2006.
I love programming, it has been my passion since I was a kid, and will forever be my passion.
I understand directory to be a technical term for a concept of the file system, strictly related to inodes. Folders are a more general topic, including folders in the Registry or when viewing the old control panel from Explorer.
What are inodes? And what makes folders more general?
