Java mkdir + mkdirs always return false
<p>I'm trying to create a new dir in Java but it doesn't work. I'm wondering why because I tried <code>mkdir()</code> first and then I tried <code>mkdirs()</code> which is supposed to create unexistant directories.</p>

<p>I wrote :</p>

<pre><code>boolean status = new File("C:\\Users\\Hito\\Desktop\\test").mkdir();
// status = false
</code></pre>

<p>then I wrote</p>

<pre><code>boolean status = new File("C:\\Users\\Hito\\Desktop\\test").mkdirs();
// status still = false.
</code></pre>

<p>A clue ? </p>
