    Ok. So you have the options, but they are just not working.

    If you like, download and merge the reg file for the Folder item linked in the table of Option 2 in the tutorial below to see if it may help. It will restore the default associations and registry entries for folders including "New folder".

    Nothing at all. When I right-click I get the MS turning circle for about 1-2 sec, then the screen goes black and pops back on with no action. Same thing if I open WExplorer and hit new. If I use the keyboard shortcut nothing happens at all. It's like the function is being blocked altogether. I can, however, create new files in internet browser windows (i.e. Google Drive).

    Sorry, that failed as well. When I right-click I cannot even get a menu to appear

    In that case, you may think about doing a repair install that should fix this without losing anything.

    Hello BC66, :)

    If you like, you could use the .reg files in the tutorial to add or remove the New context menu on demand.

    I thought I was going stir-crazy for a moment. Trying to create a folder in explorer and pressed the "New Folder" button up top ... Nothing happened. Then I tried the context menus. What the? No "new"?!

    But then I found this! Whatever you're doing, keep it up!
