File structure is a very important part of a computer. Structure refers to the 'tree' format that is used within computers. There is usually one primary folder and several sub-folders and sub-sub-folders inside the one main folder. These folder structures are very important in that some programs and applications have a specific file path stored so they can access a file whenever it is needed. This means that keeping that file structure intact is vital to ensuring the functionality of various programs on the computer. Making these file structures is a critical piece of computer programming. Proper file organization and set up could be the difference between a very fluid and effective piece of software and software that fails every few minutes.

Sometimes it is necessary to produce many individual files to place within a folder tree. Generating many files is a very long process, as many computer users know. The most fundamental method of producing a lot of files is to just open a lot of blank files and add whatever content you need and title the files properly. Even though this method has worked for many users over the years, need has grown to where hundreds of files may need to be created. Each file may be specific to recording data from a certain piece of equipment or perhaps hundreds of job folders need to have a different note put inside the folder. File creation of this magnitude quickly becomes a slow and tedious process.
