Answer 1

You can return view placed in custom sub-folders, from controller action by, giving out full view path in return statement,

ex.

public ActionResult Create()
{
    return View("~/Views/ProEnhance/Employee/Create.cshtml");
}

here,

ProEnhance - user defined folder

Employee - Controller Name

Create - action Name
