How to make a directory in PowerShell

To make a new directory in PowerShell, use the New-Item cmdlet with the -ItemType parameter set to Directory.

Here's an example:

New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path C:\mynewdirectory

This will create a new directory called mynewdirectory in the root of the C: drive. You can also specify a different location for the new directory by providing a different path for the -Path parameter.

Here's an example of creating a new directory in a specific location:

New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path C:\Users\John\Documents\mynewdirectory

This will create a new directory called mynewdirectory in the Documents directory of the user John.
