Sorry, I have tried to get this to pic to you but I am getting and ERROR message every time.

The PATH is: " iCloud Drive>desktop>untitled folder. " If that helps .

This is a clue. I would go to iCloud and disable Desktop & Documents and reclaim your Desktop as you now it.

>System Preferences>iCloud

or

>System Preferences>AppleID

everytime i create a new desk top folder on my MacBook Pro it copies EVERYTHGING i have on the desk to that folder. Deleting it does not help, they keep reappearing in the next folder I create. HELP !!

Verify your macOS is up to date... You do not say what exact Mac /model /year /size /retina /touchbar is this

or what exact macOS you are currently running?

Verify you are using the correct key combination—Because that is a viable option

If the issue continues, YOu can try relaunching the Finder—

>Force Quit>Finder>Relaunch.

If the issue still continues it could be a corrupt plist

delete the com.apple.finder.plist, Found here Finder>Go>Go to Folder, copy and paste:

~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist

Relaunch your Finder from the >Finder>Force Quit>Finder>Relaunch

Can you post a screenshot of the untitled folder window in column view and with "Show path bar" selected in the Finder>View menu? And is your desktop in your Users folder or in iCloud Drive? Could you also show us the Desktop folder Finder window?

Can you spell out precisely what sequence of actions you perform to create the new folder on the desktop?
