“New folder” Keyboard shortcut in windows xp sp3?

Question

well in windows 7 you can use this combination to make a new folder : shift+Ctrl+N
is there such combination in windows xp sp3 to do this?

Answer 1

There's no native way of doing this in XP. The closest you can get is to type:

ALT, F, W, F

(Keeping the Alt key down all the time). This executes the File > New > Folder.. sequence from the menu.

Other than that it's installing a third party program. bxNewFolder seems to be mentioned in a few post. Here for example.

Answer 2

Menu -> W -> F will open the right-click menu, select New then select Folder.

Not quite what you're after as it's not a single combination, but might be sufficent for you.
