Can't create a new presets folder in Develop mode

[tom_ch]

Over time, I have created some presets that I use regularly. So far they've all ended up in my User Presets file, but it's getting a little crowded in there. I've also tried to import commercially available presets.
In an attempt to get some order into the chaos, I've decided to create some new preset folders. Normally (or up until the last version of LR Classic CC) you could click on any preset and a pop-up menu would appear with the option of creating and naming a new folder. This doesn't happen anymore. Even if I go to the Develop drop-down menu with the option of New Preset Folder..., the window opens, but after ticking and filling out the necessary boxes nothing happens and the window closes. Either the new folder option is kaputt or I have created a load of new folders, but have no clue where they are.

Can anybody offer some enlightenment?
Thanks
Tom

The new implementation of presets in LR 7.3 and 7.3.1 is incomplete and quite buggy.  To create a new group (what LR now calls folders of presets), create a dummy new preset, and in the Group dropdown, select New Group at the top of the list.  Don't delete the dummy preset until you've put other presets into that group, otherwise it will disappear immediately.

Thank you, John,  but I don't get a Group dropdown—or then I don't know where it is. All I have is Create Preset (which I used to make the dummy) and Import Preset(s)... and the latter does not work. Right-clicking on the dummy preset offers nothing at all in ways of new group.

I am working with LR CC Classic 7.3.1 on a Mac running OS 10.13.4

Sorry, but I'm still stuck.

Worked like a charm. Thank you very much.
My bad... was too quick and not observant enough. Should have seen it the first time around.

Glad you got the workaround to work.
