If you are new to Windows, you may find yourself wondering how to create a new folder in Windows 10. Folders are what keep our computing experience sane. Without them, there is a high risk that we would get overwhelmed by the clutter. Folders in Windows 10 allow users to organize the work and information that’s stored on their computers. So, how do you create a new folder in Windows 10?
Creating a new folder in Windows 10

- Go to an empty space on your Desktop.
- Right click on the space and hover your cursor over “New”.
- In the dialogue box that appears, choose “Folder.”
- Give your new folder an appropriate name.
Just to note here that if you do not give your folder a name, it will automatically be called “New folder.” And if you create another folder and fail to name it, Windows will give it the name “New folder 2,” and so on.
