No Make Folder when I right click on desktop

I am running window7 64bit. Whe I right click on the desktop and choose NEW there is no Make Folder to choose from. How can I get it back.

may sound odd, but does it show the shortcut button still?

---edit---
when did this happen have you by any chance upgraded internet explorer, sometimes the registry key can become invalid or corrupt during the desktop installation.

Yes the shortcut button is still there. I haven't upgraded to IE9

You can try number 5 of this tutorial, see if that restores it,

Thanks for the link. A few people had the same program on their computer that caused the problem (Boot Delete). The make new folder now works
