Windows Explorer no longer creates new directories

Something was wrong with Windows 7 Home Prem

I can create is no longer new directories using Windows Explorer.

I´ll grateful for your help

Hello Jose,.

You have a common problem with Windows 7. The work that I and many others use is a utility called FileMenu Tools. You can download safely from this link: http://download.cnet.com/FileMenu-Tools/3000-2094_4-10810545.html .

After downloading, double-click the name of the file and install the program. Each option is checked by default. I would be much more selective on this subject, otherwise your context menu will be a full page long! When the main window opens, you will see a list on the right side of all the elements that can be added to the context menu. Start weeding through the list and every one to take away, you don't need the United Nationsby checking the box.

Once you have completed your selection (de-selections) make sure that you click the green check mark in the row of icons at the top of the left window of the interface to 'Apply' of your choice. The program can do much more, but that answers your specific question. I am told that the program has a good help file, so try here if you are interested.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Kind regards

Why is - this seems to happen after each automatic update? Cant we get 'option' to use the TAB key to navigate through the lines of address "write"?

    TAB through the fields that exist. It is the function of the TAB.

    Otherwise you could never use TAB to go out in a field for example: subject. It would create an indefinate number of fields and are unable to function as a TAB key.

    TAB does not back to THE fields,
    New crests to THE fields or donkey typing/selection enter/return address, you can use the selection of mouse click.

  • Search box in Windows Explorer no longer works under Vista

    I was using the search box in the right area of the Windows Explorer.

    That worked well, until I received a message (in French) I knew that "can speed up your search by indexing, click here. I got it done, and instead of a quick list of all the files (with the extension .jpg), I had a quick incomplete list of jpg files.

  • Can I disable Windows Explorer to automatically scan the directories

    I have two mapped network drives. When I hove the mouse over a folder, windows want to browse all folders and subfolders to count the total number of files, folders, size. It is causing a lot of unnecessary network traffic. I can't disable Windows to display information in the folder Option, but it still scans in the background.

    Here is an example:
    Folder1 has three subfolders, each containing three subfolders. When I hover over Folder1, it scans everything what it, same thing when I click in the folder, it scans everything, in all of the subfolders, files.

    However if I use cmd and I cd\folder1 it scans only the next level which is three files, and so forth causing much less network traffic.

    This feature is disable with a registry entry?

  • 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

  • Firefox (15) inserts a "Firefox HTML document" in the Windows Explorer file > new menu. It breaks my work bosses (Alt-FWF stops working). You will need to disable.

    I often use the shortcut Alt-FWF to create new directories under Windows.

    When 15 FF is set as default it modifies the file menu from Windows Explorer.

    She inserts an element "Firefox HTML document".

    This point seems to sabotage the above key combination. He intercepted the last f.

    In addition, I object to the name that is simply not true, for me.

    I deleted the registry key that inserts this thing. Unfortunately it appears again.

    I want to stop this behavior.

    How to kill it. (Other than by a different default browser.)

    I see, you have created an order C:\windows\shellnew for .htm files.

    Poking around for where the description could come... Have you tried to rename (by default) or FriendlyTypeName under:

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\FirefoxHTML

    to see if it works? And if so, how long it sticks?

  • Windows Media Player-how create a playlist

    howdoicreateaplaylist?

    I just got a laptop, don't have a clue on how to create playlists?

    Open Windows media player.  On the side right of the window see you 3 tabs, click the tab game and displays the reading pane.

    1 drag selected titles / tracks in this pane groups

    or select the titles / groups of tracks, do a right click, add to, Playlist

    2 at the time at the top of the reading pane, there is a backup button.  Click on it and it will give you the chance to give it a name.  It will record this name playlist in the Playlists of music / [or the Playlists subfolder in what you chose for your music folder].

    3 you can then play the list just like you can read an album or anything else.  If the playlists do not appear in the left hand "navigation pane" in WMP, click on organize, customize navigation pane & you can select them to be shown.

    Note: I talked to someone who had a problem, save playlists.  It is then rendered in the music folder in Windows Explorer and manually created Playlists subfolder.  The function of economy playlist then behaved correctly.

    There are also "auto-playlists' [created for each album ripped, I think] but you have to pick them up in Windows help pages that I've not used since WinXP so anything I said maybe garbage - they could not exist more for as far as I know.

  • Since the update Windows 10, my CS5 Photoshop created jpg are no longer visible in Windows Explorer (File Manager)

    Since the update Windows 10, my CS5 Photoshop created jpg are no longer visible in Windows Explorer (File Manager).  I have reset Photoshop like application default for jpg files, rebooted.  Nothing has changed.  The ideas people?

    Hi R_Kelly,

    Hidden folder/file settings was the first place, I checked and kept checking each new reboot.

    I have copied below my temporary solution I posted in another forum thread.

    See point 7.  I found a way to make it visible again.

    1. I can see all jpg files created before Win10 update AND all the jpgs created by other programs, other than Photoshops after Win 10 update.

    2 Photoshop cannot see the newly created Photoshop created jpg files in the file picker at all since Upgrade to Win 10.  I've never had a problem of invisibility of file before winning 10 update.  My hidden files were always checked to be visible.  However, Photoshop can open if listed files in a basic text file search in Windows Explorer in the path of the file "recently used".

    3. the files are not visible or clickable at all in Windows Explorer tree or the Photoshop file selector. They become open and visible when listed in a basic text file search in Windows Explorer in the path of the file "recently used".

    4 Microsoft Office applications can't see the new Photoshop created Jpg files in file, only pre Win 10 update pickers jpg created by other applications and versions.

    5. the problem occurs only with Photoshop jpg created after the Win 10 update.

    6. I checked the settings "Show hidden files, folders and files of the operating system", and they remain as they were, which allows all the hidden to visible objects.  I kept the visibility settings files in this way since the early 1990s.

    Temporary fix below *.

    7. I did yet another simple search of the text Windows Explorer, he finds invisible jpg files less all links 'recently used' who were there yesterday (2nd day after I created the files), I checked the location of file properties file and it entered the original file I saved their.  Using a right-click of the mouse on the file to bring up the menu actions and file properties, I was able to copy and then paste the file into another directory.  I jumped on the directories to see if it remains visible and he (Yes). The new copy is now visible to the pickers of file in Photoshop and Microsoft Office applications.
