The new folder is being put into the "Default save location". You can find out which folder this is by clicking on the link above that says "# locations".

Or, back out of the Documents library and then right-click the Documents library itself and choose Properties.

You're looking for the folder that is the "Default save location".

The thing I was talking about before is located at the top of the folder. It's a blue text link telling you how many locations are included in the library that you are in.

Look inside of My Documents for the New Folder.

If New Folder doesn't show up that means the New Folder name has been change to something else. You must do a search for the new name of the folder. Example:
New Folder name changed to Semper FI. Now you must do a search for Semper FI instead of New Folder.
If you haven't changed the name it indicates that a New folder was not created.

You could also try this. Look in Windows Explorer.

Uh oh. Try this:

  1. Go into My Computer (or "Computer")
  2. Open the C: drive
  3. Try to make a new folder
  4. Failing that, go into a random folder and try to make one
