No two files or folders can have exactly the same name. This is less of a problem than it may seem, because
the entire pathname -- the name of the disk drive and the folders leading to the file's location -- is part of
each file's name. You could, for example, have a file named Norway.jpg in a folder named C:\Photos1 and
another file named Norway.jpg in a different folder named C:\Photos2. But you could not have two different
files named Norway.jpg in the same folder. If you were to try it, Windows Explorer asks you if you want to
replace the existing file if you are moving the file or want to add "Copy of" to the beginning of
the filename if you are copying the file. |
