None of the errors I found are similar to the one you have which was triggered when you tried to create a new folder. Some of the users triggered the error “0x8000ffff” when they are in the Windows Store probably trying to install an application on their computer.

In your case, since the error was triggered when you are creating a new folder, check the drive where you are creating that folder. If you are trying to create that new folder on an external drive like a USB flash drive or an external hard drive, make sure the drive is connected properly to your computer.

If you are creating the new folder on a USB flash drive, try transferring the flash drive to another USB port and try again. If you are creating that folder on an external hard drive, make sure the USB cable is connected properly to your external hard drive and to the USB port. Try transferring the USB cable to another USB port and try creating a new folder again.

If this doesn’t work, try scanning your computer with your antivirus. You may also use Sophos Virus Removal Tool to scan your computer for any possible virus infection. You don’t need to uninstall your antivirus to use the tool. It works alongside any antivirus program you may have. Just install the tool, wait until its virus definitions get updated, and scan your computer.

If a virus is found at the end of the scan, remove it and repeat the scan until it no longer detects a virus.
