    Change "New Folder" Icon


    Hello, i would like to know if it's possible to change the icon of the default yellow folder on windows 10.
    I know that after you create a new folder you can go to propreties and change it, but my question is if you can change the default icon to your own icon and be able to see your icon in all folders after you create them. 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?
