File management is the practice of organizing, naming, storing, and maintaining digital files and folders in a logical, retrievable structure. IT professionals and general computer users apply file management skills to keep systems clutter-free, use consistent naming conventions, manage version control, and ensure backups, which improves efficiency and reduces the risk of losing data. It's a basic digital literacy skill relevant across nearly all office and technical jobs.
