By "folder," do you mean project? Folders contain projects or single-action lists; actions are contained by projects or single-action lists.

If you delete a project or list, you will delete all the actions in it, regardless of their status. If you want to keep your completed tasks, you should keep the project/list. You can, however, mark it complete with the Inspector or the contextual menu, so that it will not appear if your project selector has only available or remaining projects showing.

The 1.1 sneakypeek has an archive function, which allows you to transfer completed items to a separate file. I don't use it, though. OmniFocus seems robust enough for me to keep dozens of completed projects in the database.
