"widgets" was just an example, the folder and file is:
File folder = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(),

Yup. I suspect it's in mkdirs() also. If there's a file called widgets
on the SD card, your code won't work.

You're absolutely right, myFile.txt was a directory (who knew!?) So
now I'm making one instance of File and calling mkdirs on just "/
sdcard/zackcorp/myfiles/", and then I'm making a second instance of
File, this time with that path AND the file name, and just calling
File.createNewFile(), it wor
this is because file.mkdirs() doesn't understand that the second
