    Hi Guys,

    I came across the  cmdlet to create a folder under .\Devicecollection

    New-Item -Name TEST2 -Path .\DeviceCollection

    But my requirement is to create a folder under below path - under a folder tree

    \Device Collections\Operational Collections Global\Software Distribution Global\SD Global-Production Applications

     tried below code

    New-Item -Name TEST2 -Path .\DeviceCollection\Operational Collections Global\Software Distribution Global\SD Global-Production Applications

    but got the error as below

    New-Item : A positional parameter cannot be found that accepts argument 'Collections'.

    please help me

    Your path has a space in which means it can't be parsed correctly. Thus, you need to surround the path with single quotes (or double quotes although single quotes are generally preferred unless you need variable replacement).
