A faster way to make the previous steps is to open File Explorer, navigate to the folder in which you want to create the multiple folders, type cmd in File Explorer’s address bar, and press Enter on your keyboard.

Opening cmd inside a folder using File Explorer

Next comes the most crucial step, which is to actually create multiple folders at once. To do that, in Command Prompt, run the following command: md folder1 folder2 folder3. Change the names of folder1, folder2, folder3 with the names of the folders you want to create on your computer. Also, you can add as many folders as you want to the command.

In our example, we want to create a couple of folders named after the writers on our website: Ciprian, Codrut, and Diana. To make all these folders at once, we have to run: md Ciprian Diana Codrut.

Using md to create multiple folders at once

Command Prompt instantly creates all the folders at once, as illustrated in the following screenshot.

NOTE: If you want to create folders with names that contain spaces, like My New Folder 1, My New Folder 2, My New Folder 3, etc., make sure to put the names between quotation marks or apostrophes, like this: md “My New Folder 1” “My New Folder 2” “My New Folder 3”.
