creating new folder problem in windows 10 creator

Hi Gudiya,

The problem you've encountered in creating a folder could be caused by software or program conflict as the issue appeared a few days after installing the Windows 10 Creators update. For us to know if this only occurs when creating a new folder from the desktop,
we suggest that you try creating a new folder using a keyboard shortcut or from File Explorer. Please refer to the steps below:

Creating a new folder using a keyboard shortcut.

• Click on the desktop.
• Press CTRL + SHIFT + N.
• A new folder should be created.

Creating a new folder from File Explorer.

• Open File Explorer.
• Hover your mouse on the location where you want to create a new folder.
• Right-click it, go to New > Folder.

In case the problem persists, then we suggest that you go ahead and perform a clean boot. Doing so will start your computer using minimal drivers to help us determine what conflict is causing the problem. Check out
How to perform a clean boot in Windows for the detailed steps.

Let us know the result so we can further assist you.

Regards.

Thanks, the step you mentioned

Click on the desktop.

• Press CTRL + SHIFT + N.
• A new folder should be created.
• Creating a new folder using a keyboard shortcut.

It's working for me. But my new folder option is not working anywhere not in desktop as well as not in file explorer. Whenever I am placing my cursor on new folder option, its first spinning for few seconds then goes to close the file
explorer and refresh the desktop once.

 

Can't create new folder

In this case, we suggest creating a new user account on your computer to see if the same issue will occur while on a different profile. This is to prove if your current user account has corruption. To do this, simply follow the steps below:

• 
  Select the Start button, then select Settings > Accounts > Family & other people> Add
  someone else to this PC.
  
• 
  Type a user name, password, password hint, and then select Next.
  

You can also try booting your computer in
Safe Mode. This is to start Windows with its basic functionalities. While in Safe Mode, try making change to that folder.

Once done with the steps, let us know how it goes so we can further assist you.
