Alternatively, right-click the folder, select Show more options and then Copy. In Windows 10 and earlier versions, right-click the folder and select Copy, or click Edit and then Copy. Navigate to the location where you want to place the folder and all its contents.
Hold down the Ctrl key on your keyboard and select any files and folders you want to copy. Release the key when you're done. All highlighted files and folders will be copied. Choose Edit and then Copy To Folder from the menu at the top of the folder's window.
Go to the location of the document you want to duplicate. Right-click the file, and click Open as copy. A new file opens and is named Copy of Document, Document 2, or similar. In the new file that opens, click the File tab, then click Save As.
You can create a folder with os.makedirs()
and use os.path.exists() to see if it already exists:
newpath = r'C:\Program Files\arbitrary'
if not os.path.exists(newpath):
os.makedirs(newpath)
If you're trying to make an installer: Windows Installer does a lot of work for you.
Have you tried os.mkdir?
You might also try this little code snippet:
mypath = ...
if not os.path.isdir(mypath):
os.makedirs(mypath)
makedirs creates multiple levels of directories, if needed.
You probably want os.makedirs as it will create intermediate directories as well, if needed.
import os
#dir is not keyword
def makemydir(whatever):
try:
os.makedirs(whatever)
except OSError:
pass
# let exception propagate if we just can't
# cd into the specified directory
os.chdir(whatever)
