  • If you're on a computer with a trackpad instead of a mouse, click the trackpad with two fingers to perform a right-click.



Select New. This option is near the bottom of the drop-down menu and opens another pop-out menu.




Click Folder. It's at the top of the pop-out menu.




Type in a name for your folder and press ↵ Enter. This creates the folder with its new name.
The folder's name cannot contain any special punctuation or other characters.
If you don't type in a name, your folder will be saved as "New Folder".
