Hallo!
When I in a normal Folder und right click and select New to create a new file, then appears next to the other file formats "Library Folder".
That created a ".library-ms" Folder.
If I use that in the "Windows Explorer" there is "text document" -->.txt
The others : .docx, Compressed (zipped) Folder, ... are all the same.
How can I solve the problem?
Thanks
Alexander

I'm not sure I understand.
Text document should be in the ShellMenu > New list
It might not be in the same order as in Windows Explorer. but MC get the list of New items from the registry in Windows. so everything that is registered for 'New Item' support should show up
-
Thats the problem.
Can you see at the image?

MC get the information from the system registry.
Normally you have an entry in registry at
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.txt\ShellNew\
-
If you just want an empty file. You can from the Command field in MC type "cf myfile.txt" and it will Create a empty File at current location with that name.
-
Thanks, but of course that's much more uncomfortable.
The registry seems ok.
And please have a look at the "explorer menu".
-
Then I don't know why it does not work for you.
I cannot reproduce that problem.
Strange is that you get some of the item for the New menu but not all.
Maybe permission that prevent MC from reading that or something ? not sure what can prevent some of them from not being shown.

It actually also check other value..
the default value for .txt and then it check if there is an entire for that in the registry for other information.
in this image the default value is "txtfile" and then there is a reg key named "txtfile"
