Help with Powershell New-Item Commandlet

Question

I am trying to create new items in Powershell, however, I get caught at the Item Type. This error message pops up and I do not know how to fix it: A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'FileType'. What do I need to do? This is the line that I am inputting to get that output: PS C:\Users\zjunk> New-Item -Path E:\ -FileType Directory -Name "Personal Recipes". I love using powershell to do different tasks that might otherwise take a while to do manually

Answer 1

Its ItemType, not FileType

ItemType
Specifies the provider-specified type of the new item. The available values of this parameter depend on the current provider you are using.

If your location is in a FileSystem drive, the following values are allowed:

File
Directory
SymbolicLink
Junction
HardLink
