Definition: Folder Structure

The term folder structure (also known as a directory tree or directory structure) refers, “in the strict sense, to the hierarchical layout of the entire file system on an individual computer, and in a broader sense, to a directory service for various objects (such as users, devices, services, file shares, and packages) within a company network. A tree structure is commonly used, starting with a root and branching out as needed” (Wikipedia, 2023).
