Description
Summary of the new feature/enhancement
Provide a means to select files then put them into a new folder created at the time the operation is executed.
Proposed technical implementation details (optional)
Essentially this is a Windows Explorer implementation of the similarly named function in (Apple's) macOS Finder. Effectively this is a reverse sequence of events from what is required in Windows Explorer currently.
Select files in Explorer. Right click and select from a context menu, or click a button on the toolbar to launch the operation. A new folder is created within the current folder one is in/viewing in Windows Explorer. Once the folder is named, the selected files are moved into that folder.

"Hopper" — Easier way to create new folders from files located two or more locations.
Here's an idea for (potentially) a new PowerToy: Introducing Hopper:
Imagine if you want to create a new folder containing files from two different locations. The process would take some time right?
But with Hopper, just hit a keystroke, select the files and drop them in the Hopper. Select the files from the second directory and drop them in the Hopper too.


Then hopper would ask you a few questions about the name of the folder and it would ask, would the files be copied from the locations or be moved from the locations.


And voila! Here's your new folder!
