    I have been trying to create new folders and it seems that it is now broken.

    I ran a Scannow and it found nothing wrong.

    There's no "New" and submenu in the right click context menu when you right click on an open area?

    I think some more info would be helpful. What version of Windows? Are you talking about Windows Explorer or what? In other words, exactly where are you when you want to create new folders?

    This is the issue with numerous responses, as I have told people. Start at top, work your way down. I think I have you covered in response #1.

    Can you post a screen capture of the window where you click on the New Folder button and it does not work? It might be helpful.

    The Tab option should be able to make a new Tab.But it does not for some reason.

    I have ran a serious of test.None have worked and then i searched threw the internet for weeks and found this.

    I have come up with an idea and fixed my own problem.My new folder option is now working again.Keep this on your flash drive just in case it breaks again.

    This is only for windows 7 New Folder option breaking.
