Find a friend, relative, or co-worker with a computer that uses an operating system that you don't usually use (Windows, Mac OS, or Linux). Try out the operating system, and observe how the following operations work compared with the operating system that you normally use. Create a folder
Find a file
Copy a file into a folder
Move a file into a folder
Rename a file
Delete a file
Delete a folder

Do not compare two different Windows systems (for example, Windows 8 and Windows 10).

Linux:

Create a folder: To create a folder in Linux, one has to use the terminal (opened with CTRL+ALT+T). The mkdir command is used to create directories/folders, by specifying the path with cd/<path> of where you want to create a folder and then using mkdir <foldername> to create a folder.

Find a file: To find a file, you can use the file command in the terminal, by specifying the path (such as file <path>), followed by the file's name: file <path> <filename>.

Copy a file into a folder: To copy a file, you use the cp command. You have to specify a path and the file's name, such a way that you employ it as cp <source> <destination>.

Move a file into a folder: Similar to the cp command, you use the mv command, where you specify a path and a file's name. Such example would be mv <source> <destination>, where the source is the file, and the destination is the directory (or, i.e., the folder) you want to move that file into.

Rename a file: To rename a file, you use the mv command as well. Where you specify the file's name first, and then the file's name you want it to be. E.g. mv <filename> <newfilename>

Delete a file: To delete a file, you'd use the rm command (remove), where you specify which file you want to delete: rm <filename>.

Delete a folder: To delete a directory, you would use the rm command as well, where the command has to delete all of the files within a directory so that it can delete the folder as a whole. This is done recursively, where the files are deleted one by one. For this, you have to specify the recursive action by stating rm -r, this way, all of the files within a directory are deleted so that the directory can be deleted. You'd specify it as the following: rm -r <directoryname>. This command will delete a directory.

If, however, you are dealing with empty directories, you'd use mv -d <directoryname>.

Explanation:

Linux utilizes a CLI, which means that Linux is a command-based operating system. Meanwhile, Windows is more user-friendly, since after all, this operating system is commercial.

When looking at Linux, to perform all of the aforementioned actions, one would most likely use the terminal as it is efficient, and once you learn the commands, it is easy to employ.

In Windows, you can use the aided GUI to perform these actions, usually done by navigating in the file explorer. For instance, for simplicity, to create a folder, you'd right-click on the explorer on any specified path and click on "Create a new folder". Leading a prompt that asks a string input to name the folder. To find a file, you'd simply use the search option in the explorer. To copy a file into a folder, you can simply right-click any file, click on "Copy", and then right-click on a folder, and click on "Paste" (or you could use CTRL+C and CTRL+V respectively). To move a file, you can simply left-click the file and drag it all over where the folder is. Or likewise, you can right-click and click on "Cut", navigate to the folder, right-click once again, and click on "Paste". This will "delete" the file from the past folder and "paste" it on the new one (which is essentially moving a file). Renaming and deleting a file/folder can be done with the right-click as well.
