  Try with this:

      protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
      {
          System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(MapPath("~/" + TextBox1.Text));
      }

   Thank you, it resolved the issue.

  Hey, can you help me on more issue? 

  This is the situation. I have so many folders in my project. I need to upload files to different folders. How would I get an option to select a particular folder to save the file at run time?

  You can use RadioButtonList which you can Bind with list of your Directories:
  Control:

  <asp:RadioButtonList ID="RadioButtonList1" runat="server" RepeatColumns="5" />

  Code (Page_Load event) - instead of "*", you can use some search pattern:

  using System.IO;
  
  
          if (!IsPostBack)
          {
              DirectoryInfo dirInfo = new DirectoryInfo(MapPath("~/"));
              RadioButtonList1.DataSource = dirInfo.GetDirectories("*", SearchOption.AllDirectories);
              RadioButtonList1.DataBind();
          }

  Use this for Directory name when saving file:

  RadioButtonList1.SelectedItem.Text
