Make your important folders easy to spot at a glance.
Quick answer: For a folder, open Properties > Customize > Change Icon and pick an icon. Windows doesn't let you change the icon of an individual file. With Icon+ from Productivity Plus Pack, right-click any file or folder, choose the icon option and pick a new icon — the same menu restores the original.
When every folder looks the same, the important ones get lost. Windows lets you change a folder's icon through a few dialogs — but not the icon of an individual file.
Icon+ from Productivity Plus Pack lets you set a custom icon on any folder or file straight from the right-click menu.
Use what's built into Windows, the tools you already have, or Productivity Plus Pack — they work well together.
For a folder, open Properties > Customize > Change Icon and pick an icon.
Icon+ works on files as well as folders, right from the right-click menu, with a one-click reset.
Custom folder icons follow your folders across devices through OneDrive, usually within a minute or so of syncing.
