Tim,

Here's how I create a new folder in most areas of win7:

1. Go to the desired list of folders.

2. If the item where focus lands is selected, press control-spacebar to 
unselect. Putting focus on a non-selected item ensures the new folder will 
appear in the same list. Otherwise, it becomes a sub-folder of the selected 
item.

3. Press the applications key.

4. Arrow up or down to "new." Press enter.

5. The first item that appears is "folder." Press enter to land on the edit 
field. Type in a name and press enter again.

Note. In step 3, I indicate the applications key, which worked just now in 
Windows Explorer. Actually, I typically press alt-f in this step, but it didn't 
work in WE.

The shortcut to create a new folder in Outlook is control-shift-e.

Is there a keyboard command for this that works in Windows 7?  I have tried 
this command on my Windows 7 Windows Explorer, but it does not do anything.

Hi,

to create a new folder in Windows 8, just press alt+2 on the number row.
You will land in an edit field with the words "New folder" already filled
in. Just delete that or start typing the desired folder name and press
enter.

Regards,
Nermin
