Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    When files are deleted from this storage media, they are placed in the Recycle Bin.

    • A. 

      Flash Drive

    • B. 

      My Documents

    • C. 

      Network Drive

    Correct Answer
    B. My Documents
    Explanation
    When files are deleted from the storage media, they are usually not permanently removed but rather moved to a temporary storage location called the Recycle Bin. The Recycle Bin acts as a safety net, allowing users to easily restore deleted files if needed. However, the Recycle Bin is specific to the operating system and is typically associated with the user's personal files and folders. In this case, the correct answer "My Documents" suggests that when files are deleted from this storage media, they are moved to the Recycle Bin associated with the user's personal documents.

    When organizing your storage, where should you place multiple, related files and folders.

    • A. 

      A File

    • B. 

      A Folder

    Correct Answer
    B. A Folder
    Explanation
    When organizing your storage, it is recommended to place multiple, related files and folders in a folder. This helps in maintaining a systematic and structured approach to storing and accessing files. By grouping related files and folders together, it becomes easier to locate and manage them efficiently. Additionally, organizing files and folders in a hierarchical structure within folders enables better organization and prevents cluttering of the storage space.

    When working with file and folder management, which technique will allow the original to stay in the original location and simply creates a duplicate.

    • A. 

      Copying

    • B. 

      Moving

    • C. 

      Pasting

    Correct Answer
    A. Copying
    Explanation
    Copying is the technique that allows the original file or folder to stay in its original location while creating a duplicate. This means that the original file or folder remains intact and unchanged, while a new identical copy is created in a different location. This can be useful when you want to have multiple copies of the same file or folder in different locations, without altering the original version.

    Flash memory is typically found on the inside of a computer system.

    • A. 

      True

    • B. 

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    Flash memory is not typically found on the inside of a computer system. Instead, it is commonly used in portable devices such as USB drives, memory cards, and solid-state drives (SSDs). These devices are typically external or removable, and they use flash memory to store data. Inside a computer system, other types of memory such as RAM and hard drives are more commonly used. Therefore, the statement "Flash memory is typically found on the inside of a computer system" is false.

    Explanation
    The CTRL key can be used to allow you to select multiple files or folders. By holding down the CTRL key while clicking on the files or folders, you can select multiple items at once. This is a commonly used feature in file management and allows for efficient organization and manipulation of files.

    Moving a file or a folder is similar to cutting and pasting.

    • A. 

      True

    • B. 

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Moving a file or a folder is indeed similar to cutting and pasting. When you move a file or a folder from one location to another, it is essentially being cut from its original location and pasted into the new location. This action involves removing the file or folder from its current location and placing it in a different location, just like cutting and pasting text or images. Therefore, the statement is true.

    File extensions are initially determined by the person creating the file.

    • A. 

      True

    • B. 

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    File extensions are not initially determined by the person creating the file. File extensions are standardized and are used to indicate the file format or type. They are typically assigned by the operating system or the software used to create the file. The file extension helps the operating system or software to identify and associate the correct program to open and interpret the file.

    Save As is used to save a document with a new file name or to save it in a new location.

    • A. 

      True

    • B. 

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because the "Save As" function allows the user to save a document with a new file name or in a different location. This is useful when the user wants to create a copy of the document with a different name or store it in a different folder or drive. By selecting "Save As," the user can specify the desired file name and location to save the document accordingly.

    Most file management tasks (copying, moving, deleting, etc.) can be most quickly completed by using the File menu.

    • A. 

      True

    • B. 

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because most file management tasks can be completed more quickly using keyboard shortcuts or right-clicking on the file and selecting the desired action from the context menu. The File menu is typically used for accessing options related to the application itself, such as saving or opening files, rather than directly manipulating files.
