Taking the simple example ofC:UsersnameDocuments>mkdir Directory. Can you run Process Monitor - docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/procmon. From the Filter menu, choose "Enable Advanced Output" then in the filter add a new rule:Pathcontainswibbleas an example of a unique string Then run as before mkdir wibble. Do you see cmd.exe get an error?

Can you create directories with File Explorer in the same folders you're trying to create them from the command line?
