Unable to create a new text doc using right click

Windows Vista

I cannot create a new text document in any folder
using right click - can only create a new folder or a new
file.
Please help

See if this works; copy and paste this into a blank text document and
save it as ' text.reg '. Right-click the reg file and ' Merge '.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.txt\ShellNew]
"ItemName"=hex(2):40,00,25,00,53,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,52,00,6f,00,\

"NullFile"=""

Please be a bit more explicit. Do you mean that the option to create a new
text document is not there in the right-click context menu, or do you mean
that the option IS there, but nothing happens when you click on it?
