This is the message I get when I try to create a new folder on desktop.


I can create new folders in other folders and cut and paste them to desktop. It would be nice to be able to make them on desktop once again. any help would be appreciated

I just found this site and experiencing some of the same situations. I am unable to create any NEW folders/shortcuts when right click on mouse. After some troubleshooting, I have come to conclusion that my reg is corrupt. System is slow to start, slow to load programs, unable to create folders and just all around sluggish. I have double checked for virus and system is clean.

I'm to the point of reformatting HD and reloading Windows XP, but system did not come with recoverydisk and currently working with Hewlett Packard.

But, I did look at some of the suggestions that were presented. I do not have: ShellNew, Command located in the .lnk. I have the ShellEx, but that's it.

I do not know what assistance you will be able to offer, but I will monitor the site and look at suggestions. I have bought a new machine and this one will go to the kids, but I still like to learn things as I go.

Thanks
