Hello Alexandr,
Thanks for the review. I think other reason apart from access denied could be lack of space on device/drive. The API documentation for File.mkdirs is not very clear on reasons when the method will return false. Returns: true if and only if the directory was created, along with all necessary parent directories; false otherwise. Please let me know if your inputs on this.

Fix: Throwing an IOException from GenericFileSystemView:: createNewFolder, WindowsFileSystemView:: createNewFolder and UnixFileSystemView:: createNewFolder if mkdirs call returns false. The exception message in the fix is: "Access denied". Are there other reasons for which the File.mkdirs() can return false? Thanks, Alexandr. Regards, Rajeev Chamyal
