Unable to create new folder in windows 10

PhiberOptik

Unable to create new folder in windows 10, tried a registry fix to restore all default context menu items and tried sfc /scannow which detected no errors. Not sure how to fix this. Also the shortcut and the button to create a new folder both don't work either and I have full permissions over the drive.

I've been experiencing a similar problem since the "October" (November) update. Does the new folder show up when you restart explorer.exe?

Found this code no idea if it works, windows update found a update so I guess I'll do that and see what happens.

Lucked out and updating windows worked ? context menu color and windows explorer color changed so maybe the updates are what broke it to begin with.
