Right-click Windows Explorer to make a new folder

[CommunicatorRon]

On the next Microsoft Windows Explorer (Version 5.1) update can you please
add a right-click menu item for creating a new folder.

This could be similar to the right-click menu feature in Microsoft Office
Outlook where right-clicking a folder in the 'All Mail Folders' window
presented a menu to allow creation of a New Folder.

Your Windows Explorer program is one of the best general data organization
tools available; and maximizing the convenience of creating data structures
can only enhance usability and increase utilization of this powerful tool.

The Windows Explorer can be compared to another wonderful information-
structuring tool namely: The 'Synopsis of Categories,' as part of "Roget's
Thesaurus," by Peter Roget, organizes words by a well-structured system of
categories of conceptual information in the English language.

Microsoft Windows Explorer gives individuals the opportunity to create their
own categorical information structure; and any assistance toward that end
will be a great step forward in keeping the data expansion phenomena under
control.

Your consideration of this addition will be highly appreciated.

Thank you,
R. L. Lyons

Not that this is the right newsgroup for this, but...

It's already there. In the right side of Explorer, do a right-click,
more-or-less in the empty white space, go down to NEW then over to FOLDER.

Yes, but...I agree with the original poster (but thanks for the tip). No
reason the same functionality can't exist when the mouse pointer is on the
left side. Just add the "New" drop down to the right-click box on the left
side would be worth the minimal effort.

But thanks for the help!
