ordnerübersicht

Ordnerübersicht is a German term that translates to "folder overview" or "directory listing." In the context of computing, it refers to the display or listing of the files and subfolders contained within a specific directory or folder on a computer's file system. This overview is typically presented by a file manager application, such as Windows Explorer, macOS Finder, or various Linux file managers.

When a user navigates to a particular folder, the Ordnerübersicht shows the names of all items within that folder. Additional information might be displayed alongside the names, depending on the file manager's configuration and the operating system. This can include the type of file (e.g., document, image, application), its size, the date it was last modified, and its permissions.

Users interact with the Ordnerübersicht to perform various file management tasks. They can open files or folders, create new folders, move, copy, or delete existing items, and rename them. The arrangement and sorting of items within the Ordnerübersicht can often be customized, allowing users to view content by name, date, size, or type. This organized presentation is fundamental to navigating and managing digital information effectively. In essence, the Ordnerübersicht provides a visual representation of a hierarchical file system, making it accessible and manageable for the user.
