What is structure of window in windows XP
A file system exhibits structural dependence, which means that access to a file is dependent on its structure. For example, adding a customer date-of-birth field to the CUSTOMER, Given this change, none of the previous programs will work with the new CUSTOMER file structure. Therefore, all of the file system programs must be modified to conform to the new file structure. In short, because the file system application programs are affected by change in the file structure, they exhibit structural dependence. Conversely, structural independence exists when it is possible to make changes in the file structure without affecting the application program’s ability to access the data.

Structureless files - There is no internal structure imposed on the contents of a file. Any structure desired by the user can be used.
file is data storage structure it is collection of record
a file path descriptor, showing your location in the file structure
Changing the structure of a file may or may not affect the fragmentation of the disk. But, in most cases, the computer is going to store the file in the same location after the change.
The file's attribute information is stored in the file's metadata, which is typically saved in the file system directory. This data structure includes details such as file ownership, permissions, location on the disk, timestamps, and other attributes related to the file.
-File structure is defined in the program code.
Computers should have a file structure in place to organize and manage data efficiently. A file structure helps users easily locate and access files, improves system performance, and ensures data is stored in a logical and structured manner.
