The plus and minus signs indicate that you can expand or collapse that particular path location (i.e. drive or folder) to show or hide additional sub-sections of the path of a particular file. For example, click on the plus sign on the My Computer icon to expand and see all the drives that incorporate My Computer or click on the minus sign of a folder to hide the sub-folders that exist for that folder.

When neither a plus sign or a minus sign appears to the left of a drive or folder in Windows Explorer it means?

When neither a plus sign nor a minus sign appears next to a drive or folder in Windows Explorer, it indicates that the item is neither expanded nor contains any subfolders or files that can be expanded. Essentially, it signifies that the item is at its default state, showing that there are no additional contents to view. If a plus sign were present, it would mean that the folder can be expanded to reveal its contents, while a minus sign means it is currently expanded.
