Directories and folders are interchangeable terms. In the days before Windows (known as the "DOS" days), "Folders" were called, "Directories." To explain what a directory was, it was said to be "like a folder" which held documents (files) and sometimes envelopes (sub-directories) which could also hold other envelops and/or documents etc. etc. At some point Microsoft started referring to "Directories" as "Folders" supposedly to make it easier to understand for those new to computers. Computer files are always found in a named Directory. If a file isn't in a named directory, it is said to be in the "Root" directory i.e "In the root directory of the D: drive." Further, if a sub-directory/folder is in another directory, it is the "child" of the "parent" directory.
