“Create new text document” option missing from context menu

Question

The “Create new text document” option is missing from context menu, but only in certain folders: OS partition, Windows folder, Program Files, and probably other. It is there if I create a folder in the OS partition.

This guide did not fix the issue: "Create new text document" option missing from context menu

How can it be added? Win10x64 1909.

LE: apparently this is normal behavior. Thank you. – noob00224 Dec 25 '19 at 17:01 — noob00224, Dec 25 '19 at 17:01

That is normal for Program Files. That is a secured folder and you cannot create a new Text Document there.

Make a folder C;\Temp, make sure Everyone has permissions, and then you can create a new Text Document there.
