May 30, 2016 - How do I create sub folders for word docs and pdf in the same folder. Here are instructions on how to create a folder (or sub-folder) in Windows and Mac. A new folder is created at the bottom of the list of files and folders.
I went to the suggested website and clicked on the option: How to Remove and Restore the Default Windows 7 New Context Menu Items; then I followed the directions to restore “Folder” to the New option. I did this 2 times and each time I rebooted my computer when the New Folder option was not present. I then deleted the files and followed the directions below in order a 3rd time but still no Folder option.
When I right click on the desktop and choose the “NEW” option I notice that I have 3 missing items from before this all happened and 6 new items are now showing.
Missing: Folder Bitmap Image Rich Text Document
Added: Microsoft Access Database BMP File Microsoft Word Document Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation Microsoft Publisher Document Microsoft Excel Worksheet
The options that stayed the same are: Shortcut Contact Journal Document Text Document Compressed (zipped) Folder Briefcase
5. To Remove or Restore 'Folder' A) Click/tap on the download button below to download the below. Folder_New_Context_Menu_Item.zip 11. Save the .zip file to the desktop.
12. Open the downloaded .zip file and extract (drag and drop) the .reg file (remove or restore) that you want to use to your desktop.
13. Double click/tap on the extracted .reg file to merge it.
14. When prompted, click/tap on Run, Yes (UAC), Yes, and OK to approve merging the .reg file.
15. You can now delete the downloaded ZIP and REG files if you like.
16. Sometimes it may take a moment before the missing New context menu item to reappear. If not, then restart the computer to apply.
Think of creating new folders in Mac OS X Lion the same way you’d think of labeling a new folder at work for a specific project. New folders help you keep your files organized, enabling you to reorganize them just the way you want. Creating folders in Mac OS X Lion is very simple.
Decide which window you want the new folder to appear in, and then make sure that window is active.
If you want to create a new folder right on the Desktop, make sure that no otherwindow is active.
You can make a window active by clicking it, and you can make the Desktop active if you have windows on-screen by clicking the Desktop itself.
A new, untitled folder appears in the active window with its name box already highlighted, ready for you to type a new name for it.
Type a name for your folder.
If you accidentally click anywhere before you type a name for the folder, the name box is no longer highlighted. To highlight it again, select the icon (single-click it) and then press Return (or Enter) once. Now you can type its new name.
For folders and files that you might share with users of non-Macintosh computers, here’s the rule for maximum compatibility: Use no punctuation and no Option-key characters in the folder name.
