Icon+

Give your files and folders a look that's easy to spot at a glance.

When every folder looks the same, the ones that matter get lost in the noise. Icon+ lets you assign a custom icon to any file or folder directly from the right-click context menu, so your most-used items stand out instantly.

It works alongside the tags and star ratings from Tag+ and Rate+, layering small overlays right on top of your custom icon or thumbnail - giving you an at-a-glance view of what's tagged, rated, and important without opening a single file.

How do I change a file or folder's icon?

Right-click it in Windows Explorer and choose the icon option from the context menu to pick a new, distinctive icon.

Can I go back to the default icon?

Yes, use the same context menu option and choose the default/reset entry to restore the original system icon.

Do tags and star ratings still show once I set a custom icon?

Yes, Tag+ and Rate+ overlays layer on top of your custom icon or thumbnail, so both are visible at once.

Does this slow down Windows Explorer?

No, icons are generated and cached efficiently so your folders stay fast and responsive, even with many customized items.
