Cannot create new folders

After you perform a system restore, I find that I have more freedom to create new folders or something new when I right-click. Anyone have any ideas?

  • Cannot creat new folders in Windows 7 Home Premium

    I am running Windows 7 Home Premium. For some time, I was not able to create new folders. The only option under New's case, among other things, that I never use. I was using Dell DataSafe Online and after several months of backups without a hitch, he began to make files and folders disappear whenever he did a backup, although I could find them with a search. When I tried to create a new folder with the same name that the old man he would find the old one, ask if I wanted to merge them, and another would disappear as well. Over time, the option create a folder disappeared also.

    No solution.

    Can anyone help!

    When you do research, you see the path to the folder? Can drag you the folder to another location, such as desktop or My Documents?

    Make sure that the folder is not hidden. Right-click on it and select Properties.

    In addition, enable hidden files.

    In Windows Explorer, Win + E key, tools | Folder options | View. Show Hidden files, folders, or drives.

  • I cannot create new folders in Windows 7

    It seems that I've lost the ability to create new folders using Windows 7.  Here are the details of my system:

    Computer: Dell Latitude E6330
    Processor: Intel Core i7 - 3520M
    System: 32 bit OS
    OS: Windows 7 Professional

    Here's what I've tried so far:
    (1) tried to make a right click on the desktop, without any available menu options (Failed)
    2) tried to create a new folder in Windows Explorer using the new folder (Failed)
    3) connected to the computer by using the admin account and repeat 1 and 2 (failure)
    (4) technical note followed by support, checked the values of registry HKEY and restarted maching (Failed-no effect)
    (4) hard disk access on network from another computer on Windows 7 (64 bit professional) and
    attempted to create folders by using the user account and administrator (success-Iwas able to create folders)

    This seems a problem isolated to the recent updates of the Windows 7 32-bit system.  Are there indications as to what to do?

  • I can not create new folders. And then I discovered that I have more problems.

    I can not create new folders.   So, I tried to create a restore point, and who do not also have. He said that the restoration of the system did not completely & system files and settings were not changed.  Details: System Restore could not access a file.  It's probably because an antivirus program is running.  So I have disabled all programs and I still got the same message when I tried to use system restore.  I tried the SFC scan.  The scan SFC says he found no violation of integrity.  I could not create a new user, because it says that the user profile service does not log on.  Failed to load the user profile.  So I am totally confused. I recently followed the instructions on your site, to create a new Normal template as mine has been altered.  That worked very well, but all of a sudden, no new files cannot be created.

    The system is Win 7 Pro 64-bit with all available updates.  I can't say when the last time that the guest account has worked (rarely used) and just found out I can't do new additional user, accounts trying to solve the problem of account of comments... so I have not tried to enter Safe Mode and do a system restore , because I can't yet identify a useful restore point...

    There are no entries in the registry for a guest or a new standard user account.  The registry entries for the three accounts normal-quickly (2 x admin, 1 x level) seem to be appropriate.  Watch register computer/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

    (1) C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows open live
    (2) this directory has two subdirectories with a single file of each. Go into each directory and apply the following:
    (a) make a right click on the file, open the properties.
    (b) click the Security tab.
    (c) it will issue a message: "to continue, you must be an administrative user with permission to view this object's security properties. Would continue you? ». Click on the button continue.

    After doing this for two files, attempt to connect to the account. He must undergo.

    The procedure (bascially) worked... Although the different answers on my system differed slightly along the way (perhaps due to the slightly different versions of Win 7?, because I was already logged in as an administrator?).

    In any case, "Everyone" with the read and read/execute permissions adding to these two files seems to have done the trick:

    OK, this problem is solved, the problem was of RoboSource Control 3.1. I realized that I had installed RoboSource Control 3.1 during my trial installation (the installation option it is checked by default). By running again the trial download (thank God I taped it), I was able to uninstall RoboSource Control 3.1. (I could not uninstall by using the Tech Comm Suite installer or the Add/Remove feature in the control panel)

    Then I ran the installation Tech Comm Suite and reinstalled RoboHelp 7 (without installation of RoboSource Control 3.1).

    RoboHelp 7 HTML now works again. Note that only the HTML version has been screwed upward - Word version ran OK, I just don't need.
