Wow, I can't believe it only took MS some 20 years to create a real keystroke shortcut to create a new folder. And one that uses a decent mnemonic too. I'm not sure how they're going to get people to forget and lose muscle memory for "Alt, F, W, F/Enter" though.
I thought this issue came up because MacOS doesn't have a similar shortcut. Or was I misunderstanding that post? And I didn't say I used that set of keystrokes myself. I tend to use the mouse to create new folders, which brings me to:
On top of everything, for creating a new folder, this navigation isn't the same when you're on the "Desktop" since its context menu doesn't have the same hierarchy.
If you right-click on the desktop, you can then hit W, F. What are you talking about?
But I'll say it again, why on earth would I press "w" to get to a menu item labeled "New?"
I'm all with you on that one. I'm not sure why they don't just use "n".
