RRB NTPC · Question 38

In a Window-based computer, two files cannot be in the same folder if

  1. they have different names, but same creation date

  2. they have different names, but are of same file type

  3. they have the same name, and are of the same file type

  4. they have the same name, but are of different file type

Show answer & explanation

Answer: (C) they have the same name, and are of the same file type

Explanation

In Windows a file is identified in a folder by its full name, name plus extension. Two files with the same name and the same file type (extension) would have identical full names, which is not allowed. Files with the same name but different extensions can coexist.
