I have been trying to create a hot key that will open a new folder. I am
tired of the right click and so on. Can this be done? If so, please tell
me what I should do.
 
ALT + F + W + F

Doesn't work from Desktop. Will work from any folder.

Shift + F10, W, F

or

Ctrl + Space, Shift + F10, W, F

depending if an icon is selected or not. Works on desktop.
 
Thank yopu for the information, I did not know that. Unfortunately, there is
still information that I am trying to get. I have a new "Microsoft Wireless
Comfort Keyboard (1.0A) and it has assignable keys, I am trying to assign
one of those keys to go through the steps and just create a new folder. the
information that you provided is great and I will use that until I find the
target I am looking for.

Not exactly the information I am looking for. I have a new "Microsoft

will keep looking for the target.
Thanks,

Maybe you can do something like this.

This will create a new folder on the Desktop named New Folder when the batch
file is run.
Will only create one New Folder until the first New Folder is renamed.
Save these two lines in Notepad as new folder.bat

cd %allusersprofile%\Desktop
md "New Folder"

Assign a hot key to the batch file.

Thanks, that works just fine to the desktop. Is there any kind of batch file
that will open a new folder in what ever folder you are currently in, or does
it always have to end up in aone particular location?
