System programs provide inconvenient environment for program development and execution.
File manipulation is a technique in programming that uses file such as MSWord and notepad documents as an input and or output. This file manipulation technique is used in File-based systems. Status information is a method of giving the user of operating system of the current status of a process, application, etc.
File modification is a method of altering the file using an application program. Programming language support is a status of an operating system in which the operating system is able to support the use of a programming language. This is very important information for developers and programmers so that they are able to select the type of operating system they will use in their development.

File Manipulation includes all the operations you do on a file whether it is a text file, an image file, a video file, a disc image, or anything found on the computer. It includes the process like deleting, opening, appending, updating, copying, moving, renaming, and others. This is the task that a file undergoes and is usually done in a program or software like Microsoft Office Word where a lot of data access and file updating happens.
A file modification has something to do with the contents of the file. Like for example when you open a document file either with Microsoft Office Word or with another software, then you add something to the contents of the file then you save it again, that is how a file modification is done. When a virus infects a file, where it inserts itself on to the file, that is another example of file modification.
