Change Folder Icon
I find it easiest to live with the standard folder icon and create a
shortcut to the folder with the icon I prefer. However, the solution is to change the folder attributes to "system" and then create a text file inside the folder named "desktop.ini". Inside this desktop.ini file, paste text with the format: [ExtShellFolderViews] Default={5984FFE0-28D4-11CF-AE66-08002B2E1262} {5984FFE0-28D4-11CF-AE66-08002B2E1262}={5984FFE0-28D4-11CF-AE66-08002B2E1262 } [{5984FFE0-28D4-11CF-AE66-08002B2E1262}] PersistMoniker=file://Folder.htt [.ShellClassInfo] ConfirmFileOp=0 NoSharing=1 IconFile=Folder.ico IconIndex=0 InfoTip=Some informational text.The IconFile=Folder.ico should have the correct relative path to the file containing the icon."James Stephens" wrote in message ...
