How to change folder icon or picture                                                                                                                           

You can change your folders icon for easy recognition or to different shade between folder contents, for example. If you saved notes about flash drives, you can change the folder icon to a flash for benefits best known to you. I remember a time when i downloaded notes from the internet for my kid brother. He didn't really know how to use the computer be then. All the times he will wait for me to open the files he needs so he can continue reading. I showed him how to open each file, but the problem is. The files were saved in different folders, reason being not to create confusion though he still got confused after all. I actually renamed the folders but he sometimes didn't really remember he could check on the folder labels. I started thinking of what easy way to make things much easier for him. A thought came to my mind about changing folder pictures and it did work best. I replaced the Windows folder image with a different picture, corresponding to the contents. it did really work for him and should work for you as well.

However, i am going to take you through a step by step procedure, as easy as should be understandable. Now that you have folders ready to be changed, let’s see what’s going to happen with them.

Right click a folder and choose customize from top right menu in folder properties.

Choose change icon at bottom.

Scroll the bottom scroll bar to see more images. Choose an image corresponding your choice and click OK.

Click Ok to confirm your changes. You are done and should see your folder changed.
