New Folder icon Windows Explorer Vista

[stev379]

My searches didn't turn up what I'm lookng for. I apoligize if this has been done already.

I'm trying to add a New Folder icon to the Windows Explorer toolbar or even a command bar ...or even the quick launch for a basic starting point.

The New Folder code is easy enough except I haven't been able to get it to create the New Folder in the directory I'm actually in. Of course "@workingdir" creates the New Folder in the script directory even when I use a shortcut.

Does anyone have tips on how to create a new folder in the actual directory I'm in?

Example: Script is stored in E:\_Tech\Scripts\AutoIT\InProgress\CrtDir

Shortcut to script is in the Quick Launch tool bar.

I have Windows Explorer open to C:\TestDir1

I want to click the Quick Launch CrtDir.exe.lnk shortcut to create a "New Folder" in C:\TestDir1

Any ideas or suggestions are appreciated. I know this is bugging a lot of people. If nobody else has a solution yet, maybe we can find a decent one.

I'm always open to better ways to write my existing code also.

$DIRNAME = ("New Folder")

If Not FileExists($DIRNAME) Then 
    DirCreate($DIRNAME)
Else
    $i=1
    For $i=1 To 100
        If FileExists($DIRNAME & ' ' & $i) Then 
            $i=$i+1
            DirCreate($DIRNAME & ' ' & $i)
            Exit
        Else
            DirCreate($DIRNAME & ' ' & $i)
            Exit
        EndIf
    Next
EndIf

Thanks!!

Did you try @ScriptDir?

Did you try @ScriptDir?

Sorry for the delay. Caught the flu. Not as much fun as a

Yeah, that'll come up the same as @workingdir returning the location where the script is stored. It needs to return the current location of the Windows Explorer window that has focus and the folder it's open to.
