• Why I can not create a new folder in Windows Contacts and rename it?

  I keep my contacts in Windows Contacts, divided into folders named category.  In the past, I was able to press the button "New folder" to create a new folder, and then rename the folder.  Now, I can create a new folder, but Windows doesn't allow me the no - name.  As soon as I type the name of the new folder and press ENTER, it goes back on behalf of the "new folder". Can someone explain what happened?

  If possible, although I honestly don't see how the shortcut should influence.  Try this, just delete your shortcut, then take the icon on the left side of the address bar of the 'work' contacts folder and drag your desktop and drop it.  This example is part of a control panel, but it works the same:

• Cannot create a new folder in Windows Explorer

  Original title: Windows Explorer

  I have a HP model p6710f computer running Windows 7 SP1 that I keep updated.

  I use Kaspersky Internet Security.

  My problem is: Windows Explorer does not create a new folder and I can't determine why.

  I can create a Briefcase (which I really don't need) but why can't I just create a single file?

  I would like to have information or suggestions about this situation.

  Thank you

• Why can't I create a new folder in Windows 7?

  No matter what I do, "New folder" does not work.  Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.  It has worked before, now it doesn't.  There is a solution, but it's a lot of time.  Help, please.  Thanx

  I found this somewhere, can't remember where exactly, but it works if you try to create a new folder in the C: drive.

  Try this. Launch the command prompt and in the window, type cd... (including colon) and press ENTER. Type cd... and press ENTER again. Repeat until you get C:\ >

  Now, type mkdir  folder_name, where folder_name is replaced by the name you choose for your new folder. Press ENTER. Remove and check.

  In windows 7 exployer, I click on "new folder" high and nothing happens.  I click on the drive I store my info and want to create a new folder, so I click on thenew folder button at the top and nothing happens.

  When you say drive do you mean drive or partiion? Readers are divided into one or more partitions.

  Your problem is probably not a result of having a limited user account.

  Try to create a new folder, an indication of the exact time that you do. Then, look in the event viewer and see if you can see the report in the system / application log registration issue. Thanks for posting a copy of therep [ort in your next message.

  To access the system log, select Start, Control Panel, administrative tools, Event Viewer, in the list on the left of the window select Windows and the system logs.

  Place the cursor on the system, right click and select filter current log. Check the front of the error and click OK and see you only reports errors. Click header to sort on the Date and time. You may need to click a second time to see the last report above.

  A tip for posting copies of error reports! Run the event and double observer

  button resembling two pages. Click on the button and close event

• Hello, I can't create a new folder under windows 7.

  Options are still their and when I type mkdir folder_name in the command prompt it creates a folder, but when I press on the new folder buttons, it does nothing.

• New folder in Windows Explorer is not visible until I press refresh

  Hello!

  If I create a new folder in Windows Explorer to a network drive (which is a DFS share) under Windows 7 Professional 32 bit, the new folder is not visible until I have press F5 (refresh). Is there a fix or a solution to this problem?

  Thank you

  Kampi

  Hi kampi,.

  You can wait for a while and do not try to rush by pressing f5, because it can take a while to showup on network drive.

  To work around the problem, you can try to disable the Client of Microsoft Networks in the LAN connection properties

  a. open management of network and sharing Center.

  b. go to the Local network connection and click Properties.

  c. clear the Client for Microsoft Networks option and check.

  Hope this information is useful.
