I'd probably be the same if it wasn't for video games. Wanting to build my own PC was what educated me the most about computers and how they work and learning basic desktop usage. Especially getting into Skyrim and Minecraft mods. There whether someone wants to or not they will have to know basic folder structure and where things are saved and located.

But, without a self driven reason to dive further beyond mobile devices it doesn't seem like schools are teaching people computer basics anymore. So not something learned by everyone by just every day life.
