The five major activities of an operating system are regarding file management

Explanation:

• Operating systems serve as a bridge between the hardware and software of the computer.

• Several widely used operating systems differ from each other in many ways.

• However, each of them performs many similar functions, including executing native instructions, either compiled or interpreted; and also manages processes, memory, input and output, storage, network operations, and file and folder/directory operations.
