Why can’t I create a new folder in files?
Why I am not able to create a folder in desktop?
It is possible that there may be a few reasons why you are not able to create a folder on your desktop. I would recommend the following steps to investigate and possibly resolve this issue:
1. Check if you have the correct permissions to create new folders in the directory where you are trying to create it – For example, if your operating system is Windows, right-click on the desktop and select ‘properties’, then go to the ‘security’ tab. Make sure that your user account has permission to "Create files/write data".
2. Check if there is enough disk space available – Go into ‘My Computer’ or ‘This PC’ (depending on your version of Windows) and check how much free space is available on each drive. If no drives have any free space left, you will need to delete some files or move them onto an external storage device before creating any additional folders.
3. Try restarting your computer – Sometimes simple tasks like creating a folder can become blocked by background processes running in the background which can sometimes be resolved by restarting your computer.
4. Try using another user account with administrator privileges – If you are still unable to create a folder after following these steps, try creating one with another user account that has administrator privileges on the same machine (if applicable).

How do I enable a folder on my desktop?
To enable a folder on your desktop, you first need to create the folder. To do this, right-click on an empty space on your desktop and select “New > Folder” from the context menu. This will create an unnamed folder directly onto your desktop. You can then name it something that makes sense for what is going to be stored in it.
Once you have created the folder, you can add files and documents into it as needed or use it as a storage area for any related items you may have. If you would like to make sure that no one else is able to access this folder while still having the ability to open and close it easily, you can also set up password protection for added security.
If at any point in time you need to disable the folder again, simply right-click on its icon and select “Disable” from the context menu. This will remove all access rights associated with that particular folder and make sure that only those users who know its password can open it again if necessary.
