Hello Flycaster,
It sounds like this may be an association issue. If you like, see if downloading and merging the Directory and Folder options in the tutorial below may be able to help by restoring their default associations.
Default File Type Associations - Restore
Hope this helps,

This uses a protocal instead of file extension, the options mentioned above will restore the default associations for them and hopefully fix it for you. It will not hurt anything to apply them since they only restore the default associations thay should be that way. :)
You needed to use both of them. You would also need to use the Folder option as well for it to work. :)

Thought I deleted this thread...guess not. Anyway, to my embarrassment, I have found that there is nothing wrong with getting a new folder. It was my mistake that caused the problem. Soory to have put you guys through the trouble of going on a wild goose chase.
It's no problem at all. I'm happy to hear that you got it sorted. :)
What turned out to be the cause for you so others with the same issue may see if it is the same cause for them as well?
As previously stated, the problem was not a real problem and is an embarrassment that I goofed. Nothing to do with something not working, other than these old eyes. Anyway, first I placed a new folder where I wanted it. It said "New folder." Then I right clicked and selected Rename. New folder became highlighted and there was a blinking cursor. I then immediately started to type the new name and Enter, and there was "New folder" again. For some unknown reason (age related dementia?), I failed to recognize that before typing the new name, I had to first undo the highlighting....DUH!
