    File Manager will NOT create Directory Names or Rename a Directory

    8:11 PM 2/10/2016

    8. The File Manager will NOT create Directory Names

    Nor will it Rename a Directory

    It works Making Files, and Renaming them - just Not Directories.

    I even used the Clean Manager on all unimportant files,

    then Optimized (Defrag) the file structure, and Shutdown the system,

    then Rebooted the system from cold. No Good. Still Failing.

    The Windows Defender is up to date - Today.

    No known issues were reported there.

    9:02 PM 2/10/2016

    ------------------------------------------------------------

    Sorry, I went too fast and left some info out.

    I have an HP Pavilion Desktop System,

    and am running Windows 10, version 1511,

    and use a Wide Screen Monitor.

    As I have been doing for years, I create the directory

    in the Windows Explorer (Not Internet Explorer) that

    has always been considered the File Manager.

    As always, I create the Directory, then Move (or Copy)

    the desired files into that Directory.

    Yesterday the File Manager STOPPED Making Directories.

    It also won't allow a Directory to be Renamed.

    And it won't allow a Directory to be Moved.

    I have resorted to using the DOS Command Console

    to Create and Remove desired Directories.

    I issue the "md" command to Make a Directory.

    I issue the "rd" command to Remove a Directory.

    This is a longer and tedious way to work, but being

    an old hand at DOS it is the only File Manager I have.

    I would like to obtain a downloadable version of

    Windows 10, v1511 (or the latest version)

    so that I can re-install it as is necessary.
