since updating to catalina I cannot save "new folder" to HD -option is grey - help! After the update I couldn't find any of my folders/files - panic stricken I slowly searched and found them on the desktop in a fold called "relocated items". Now I am unable to create new folders or New Folder with Selection. I have everything on my desktop, don't like working like this. How do I create folders on the HD and fix this situations?

MacBook Air 13", macOS 10.15

The root level of the startup drive is locked down completely in Catalina.

Save your files inside your Home folder, or /Users/Shared/.
