Enter the location in which the system will create the item in the New folder will be created in: text box.

Command-Line
To achieve the same result using a command line:
Ensure that you are in the correct location.
If you are not sure, use the "pwd" command to view your current location.
pwd "print working directory" well, ... prints the current working directory or the directory you are in at the moment.
You can also use:
echo $PWD
OR
pwd | awk -F'/' '{print $NF}'
To create a folder in the current directory or given path:
mkdir $directory
To create multiple folders or directories in the current directory:
mkdir $folderName1 $folderName
To create nested directories:
mkdir -p $parent/$child/$nested_child
You can use the -p flag to tell mkdir to create a parent directory if it doesn't exist and then create the nested child directories.
