Which action describes renaming a folder in a typical file management workflow?

• A. Rename a folder
• B. Delete a folder
• C. Copy a folder
• D. Move a folder

Answer: (A)

Renaming a folder means giving it a new name while leaving its location and contents unchanged. In a typical file management workflow you would select the folder, choose the rename option (or click the folder name to edit it), type the new name, and press Enter. The path to that folder changes only in its label—the actual files inside and the folder’s place in the directory tree stay the same. This is different from deleting (which removes the folder), copying (which creates a duplicate of the folder), or moving (which changes where the folder sits in the hierarchy). Some systems allow renaming during a move, but that still involves changing the folder’s name rather than just relocating it.
