Any person who uses a personal computer every day, in one way or another, encounters objects called files, which are some containers of information that serve different purposes. But far from every user fully knows what rules for writing a file name should be followed, because of which errors and misunderstandings can very often arise. Now we will consider the question regarding the file name in the most direct way.
What the file name consists of
Let's start with a description of the object itself, called a file. Here you need to clearly understand that the designation of such an information unit consists of two parts: name and extension.

By the way, if we analyze the question of what rules for writing a file name should be observed, thoroughly, it can be noted that many programs for recovering information deleted from the Recycle Bin use the principle of searching by name. The fact is that when you delete the file is not physically erased from the hard drive, only the first character is changed to the "$" sign. If the sector containing such information was not overwritten, the system recognizes the file as suitable for recovery.
