Error code

package FileDemo2;

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;

public class FileDemo2 {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        // Requirement 1:Create a file java.txt in the C:\Users\119k\IdeaProjects\d17\FileDemo2\ directory
        File f1 = new File("C:\\Users\\119k\\IdeaProjects\\d17\\FileDemo2\\java.txt");
        System.out.println(f1.createNewFile());
        System.out.println("--------------");


        // Requirement 2:Create a directory in the C:\Users\119k\IdeaProjects\d17\FileDemo2\ directory
        File f2 = new File("C:\\Users\\119k\\IdeaProjects\\d17\\FileDemo2\\JavaSE\\");
        System.out.println(f2.mkdir());
        System.out.println("--------------");

        // Requirement 3:Create a multi-level directory in the C:\Users\119k\IdeaProjects\d17\FileDemo2\ directory \JavaSE\JavaEE\
        File f3 = new File("C:\\Users\\119k\\IdeaProjects\\d17\\FileDemo2\\JavaSE\\JavaEE\\");
        System.out.println(f3.mkdirs());
        System.out.println("--------------");

        // Requirement 4:Create a file javaSE.txt in the C:\Users\119k\IdeaProjects\d17\FileDemo2\ directory
        File f4 = new File("C:\\Users\\119k\\IdeaProjects\\d17\\FileDemo2\\javaSE.txt");
        System.out.println(f4.createNewFile());
        System.out.println("--------------");
    }
}

For the revised code, add \src

package FileDemo2;

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;

public class FileDemo2 {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        // Requirement 1:Create a file java.txt in the C:\Users\119k\IdeaProjects\d17\FileDemo2\ directory
        File f1 = new File("C:\\Users\\119k\\IdeaProjects\\d17\\src\\FileDemo2\\java.txt");
        System.out.println(f1.createNewFile());
        System.out.println("--------------");


        // Requirement 2:Create a directory in the C:\Users\119k\IdeaProjects\d17\FileDemo2\ directory
        File f2 = new File("C:\\Users\\119k\\IdeaProjects\\d17\\src\\FileDemo2\\JavaSE\\");
        System.out.println(f2.mkdir());
        System.out.println("--------------");

        // Requirement 3:Create a multi-level directory in the C:\Users\119k\IdeaProjects\d17\FileDemo2\ directory \JavaSE\JavaEE\
        File f3 = new File("C:\\Users\\119k\\IdeaProjects\\d17\\src\\FileDemo2\\JavaSE\\JavaEE\\");
        System.out.println(f3.mkdirs());
        System.out.println("--------------");

        // Requirement 4:Create a file javaSE.txt in the C:\Users\119k\IdeaProjects\d17\FileDemo2\ directory
        File f4 = new File("C:\\Users\\119k\\IdeaProjects\\d17\\src\\FileDemo2\\javaSE.txt");
        System.out.println(f4.createNewFile());
        System.out.println("--------------");
    }
}

The absolute path of the file needs to be obtained in the IDE. Here, copy-absoulte path is used to find that there is more \\src in the file path
