New folder option missing in vista when right click on
I have vista 32 bit and just replaced my hard drive and reinstalled my OS.
I was not able to create new folders. When I right click on the box, and then click New, "desktop folder" is not there. When I'm in windows Explorer and click on "organize", "new folder" is there, but when I click it, nothing happens.
I ran sfc/scannow, and he said that he managed to repair some files. I then rebooted and the problem is still there.
I also checked the registry to verify that the desktop of windows update component has been installed and matched: {D969A300-E7FF-11d0-A93B-00A0C90F2719}
I also have the administrator rights.
Don't know what else to try.
I saw another thread on this recommendation to copy and paste a few lines of registry, but this thread was several years old and don't know if I should try again. In addition, he was vague. He said "copy and paste the following lines and save the file with the .reg extension. Double-click to add the information to your registry.
Where can I stick him?

"new folder" option grayed out
I was organizing my files photo in year folders and subfolders of months on an external portable 1.5 TB harddrive. I've only used less than 1%, so I have a lot of memory still available. Suddenly my "new folder" option is grayed out. How can I get this working again? (The file is available, but I don't want this kind of file.)
You format your drive Seagate for a Mac? It is delivered formatted for Windows and if you are wrong in the installation of the software on the drive, it will be read/write until the software stops, then you will be able to read the disc.
Select the drive, then the get info (cmd - i). See if it says that the format is NTFS. If this is the case, it is formatted for Windows and OS X can only read the drive natively. You can install a third-party software to read and write, but it is apparently not well maintained and seems to fail to update to OS X.
If this is the case, I would say you move the files to another drive and then format the drive as Mac OS extended (journaled), then move the files back.

When right clicking an element in some programs, I get an empty box instead of the options
Example: Right-click on start, only get the outline of the box, but if I drag the mouse inside the outline I get options available one at a time. Even with other programs that I use as Adobe Photoshop - cannot get options when right-clicking. That developed this afternoon for what seems like no apparent reason. Would appreciate help.

It seems that your office has been changed to the classic theme.
What just happened when you started the computer? You have a selected Aero theme before this happened?
First, right-click on the desktop and select Personalize. Try to select one of the Aero themes to see if this solves the problem.
If this does not work, try to run the Aero troubleshooter.
Run the Aero convenience store.
Open Control Panel and type Troubleshooting in the Search box.
Select Search and solve problems.
Under appearance and personalization, select display Aero desktop effects.
In the Troubleshooting Utility dialog box, click the Advanced Options link and place a check mark in the apply repairs automatically option.
Click Next to start the troubleshooter.
Let us know the results.
