making a shortcut key for creating a new folder

[Swamphen]

I know a new subfolder can be created by clicking the right mouse button, choosing "New" and then choosing "Folder".

But this is much too slow for my impatient self.

Can a shortcut key be made?

Thanks.

Here's the easiest thing to do. Hold the ALT Button and then press this sequence of buttons
FNF
That won't work on the desktop. To create a shortcut for that make a batch file and create a shortcut to it.
Open notepad and copy the BOLD

md C:\windows\desktop\new
cls

Save as New.bat SAve as All Files
Put it somewhere and right click on it.Click on the program tab. Create a Keyboard shortcut using the form.
That's it.
Now you can create a new folder on the desktop too.

Thanks.

The alt fnf hint isn't exactly the kind of shortcut I was looking for though. It's still a sequential keycombination and therefore not that much faster as a mouse-rightclick. I was looking for something like the desktop-solution (which I thank you for) but then something to use in Windows Explorer.

But possibly it's not feasible at all.

And then again it's not that important. I guess I got a bit swept away by the tweaking-thrill.

Of course, if someone has a better solution I'm eager to hear it.

As far as I know. it isn't possible. But if your keyboard skills are good, it is faster. That's why I suggested it.
