Using Windows Explorer I want to add a folder under my Account folder.
Under the other folders I right click and select new/ folder. In my Account
folder this option does not appear and it is greyed out in the Organize area
also. Does Windows prohibit one from adding additional folders directly
under their Account folder?
 
My account type is administrator and I am the only user. I am running Vista
Home Premium build 5384. My Account folder has 11 subfolders consisting of
Contacts, Desktop, Documents and so on. It won't let me created a folder
under the Computer folder either. You would think one could create a
subfolder under their own Account folder.
 
Yeh - the subfolders in your "User" area (so C:\Users\username) I don't
think you can add folders to that (I certainly can't to mine... if this
isn't the case, I'm in trouble!), and you certainly can't add folders to the
Computer area - as this is just system folders and drives etc.

you can right click in the lower left corner in the favortie links window,
and brings up any folder you wish to view.

you will see folders greyed out on there, click on the arrow and your
folders will come up.
