An operating system (OS) enables a user to interact with the computer hardware and manage system resources effectively. It provides a user interface, allowing users to run applications, manage files, and perform tasks such as printing and networking. Additionally, the OS ensures system security and stability, facilitating multitasking and resource allocation among different applications. Overall, it serves as a bridge between the user and the computer's hardware.
