  1. I need some help with my folder icons please


    I am using a windows laptop windows 10 pro and the version is 1903.

    Here is the problem I have changed the icons on my old laptop but forgot how.

    Now I want to change them on here but am having a bit of trouble.

    Here is what I'm trying to do.

    (1) I want to use folders for everything and these folders are not the full size ico files I was told to use on the windows 7 forum. These I think are 125 or 120 something.

    I like the way they look as long as I don't make them large or extra large I could not figure out how to make the actual ico file bigger without messing them up.

    (2) I have already changed the main folder icon which is a glowing aqua color but I want to keep it the same for open and closed folder but just a different color.

    (3) I was wondering how do I change the other folder icons like the zipped folder icon.

    (4) I was also wondering how do I change the other folder icons in the left hand side. The open folder is the same as the main folder and never changed for me. Maybe the settings is different then in windows 7 forum.

    I know this might sound stupid to ask all these questions but I am trying to make my laptop a bit more customized. And really like the glowing folders.

    Plus is there a online site or a program I can use and edit the size of the ico without messing it up.

    And if anything I asked is already on the site can someone please point me in the right direction. Thank You!

    :)

    Change Folder Icon in Windows 10


    I just acquired a new laptop running Windows 10 and am trying to change the icons of the folders in the StartUp "Program" folder so that they would stand out a little better. I used my admin account and followed all the steps listed above, but when I clicked on "Apply", nothing happened. The same basic windows folder icon remained attached to the folder. I also tried to go into Properties and capitalize some of the folder names, but that didn't work either. Looks like something is protecting them, but I cannot figure out what it is much less how to get around this blockage, Any suggestions?
