Create new folders in Windows 7 with hotkey.

Windows 7 includes the ability to add new folders with a keyboard shortcut key combination.

To create a new folder, we normally right-click, select New > Folder. But Windows 7 lets you do it with a keyboard shortcut too.

To do so, simply press Ctrl+Shift+N in an open explorer window & the folder will be automatically created instantly show up, ready to be renamed to something more useful.
