Windows 10: Cannot RENAME a newly created folder in Windows 10 x64.

All of a sudden I cannot RENAME a newly created folder in Windows 10 x64. I keep getting a message that an unexpected error is preventing me from renaming the folder and refers to error x080070057. How do i fix this

:)

 

Unable to rename newly created folders in Win 10.

After creating a new folder in documents or pictures etc when I right click it and try to rename it, an error message comes up to say is the location etc correct and then if i click the try again button it then says no such folder exists. I have tried all
the previously listed fixes but none have worked, any suggestions.

Desktopini created instead of a folder renaming

Every time I try to rename a folder on my PC (Windows 10 Pro), instead of renaming the file, it creates a desktop.ini folder, and inside of it is the following information

[.ShellClassInfo]

LocalizedResourceName=

After LocalizedResourceName= is the name of the folder that I renamed it to. So if it was Folder1 and I rename it to Folder2, that file will say:

[.ShellClassInfo]

LocalizedResourceName=Folder2

... but the actual foldername will still be Folder1

Searching the Internet lists a bunch of random suggestions, none of which work. Anyone know why this happens? I'm pretty close to abandoning File Explorer, as it seems to be the cause of this issue.

 

Unable to create a new folder or rename a folder

Hi Edver,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft community.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you. I'll certainly help you with this.

I would like to let you know that you may not be able to rename or add a new folder from Quick access. It will allow you to open the folders that are frequently used, recently viewed files or the files/folders that are added to
Quick access.

If you are unable to create or rename files/folders in other folders as well, then I would suggest you to run a SFC scan.

System File checker (SFC) scan is done to check if there are any corrupted system files that could be causing this issue. Kindly follow the below given steps:

• Press Windows key + X, select
  Command prompt (Admin) to bring up elevated Command prompt.
• In Command prompt type sfc /scannow and press enter.
• Restart the computer.

Hope this will help you. Keep us posted with the status of the issue to assist you further.

Thank you.
