Am I imagining it, or wasn't there an icon in the toolbar of all My
Computer folders which would create a new folder? If there was, I'm
darned if I can find how to get it back. I know I can use
File>New>Folder, or R-click>New>Folder, but that single click used to
be faster - if it ever existed!

It certainly does in all my applications' File-Open or Save As
windows. Maybe I'm confusing it with that?

Click to expand...

There is...

Well there is here?

If you open Windows Explorer, click on tools, click on options, and on the
first tab - do you still have it set to show common tasks?

Thanks Galen. That must be where I remember it from then. No, I don't
like having all that space taken up by options I hardly ever use!

If only they were smarter (or customizable easily) and they actually
populated with actual common tasks. *grins* Ah well... I leave it there, I
don't know why. You can always right click and make a new folder but you
already know that.
