Hi dunno wha...,

the "create folder" function should exist in LV6.0. See this link:

If the folder "reg..." doesn't exists, then you have create it first. You don't need to open a folder, you only need to use a path to select the folder where you want to create a folder or a file, but all folders from the path has to exists.
