However, I threw that in there as you taught the menu method, so I thought I would present the keystroke method. I always start out with teaching the menu routes with all of my clients, but I see, and agree with you David.

I have tried every trick I know and can't find out how to create a new folder using 8.1. Can someone please rescue this poor frustrated Windows 7 user before I give up and re-load Windows 7?
