For me, a path was always something that "walks the way to something", but without the "something".

Like a chicken following bread crumbs until it hits the target. But the target is not part of the path. That's what I believe.

So, example: C:/foo/bar = the path. C:/foo/bar/something.html = Path and the "Target".

Can someone tell me what are the correct terms here? How do I call such a path with file?

"Full path"? "Full qualified path"? "Path with File Name"? (not precise! "Path with File Name and Extension" ... way too long)

Sure there's a special name for this. Want to know! :)
