    Hi,
    What did you mean by folder toolbar? Are you referring the list of the folder options, the taskbar or some other location? May be it is something rather simply but I failed to understand so please clarify.

    If you would like a shortcut located in the taskbar (Quick Launch) section that would create a new folder on your desktop with a single click, then you could accomplish this in a simply but rough way by creating a new shortcut on your desktop then moving it to the 'Quick Launch' section of the Taskbar.

    Target: %windir%\System32\cmd.exe/cmd"%userprofile%\desktop\New Folder"
    Start in: %windir%

    Note: Replace each smiley face with a single space.

    -or-

    First you must select 'Show hidden files and folders' option in Folder Options applet, then right-click on Start button which would open the Start Menu under the current user's profile. This is the location of the Quick Launch under the current user's profile:
    C:\Documents and Settings\current user\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch
    You could right-click on the right pane of the explorer window and create the shortcut directly in the Quick Launch bar (see the screenshot).

    Enter the above 'Target' path for the 'Type the location of the item' field.
    For the following window asking for the new of the shortcut type whatever you desire (ei. New Folder).


    If what you wanted was something different please explain in detail.
