Change the Windows folder icons RGB color!


It is not that easy without external programs, changing the Windows folder icons in RGB color!



This question is often asked in relation to the tool ... DesktopOK .

Info:

Windows 10 has very nice folder icons that look very stylish and modern. Folder icons were changed for the first time since Windows Vista. They are similar to the icons in Windows Vista / 7/8, but look flatter but retain richness of color. However, if you get bored with these new icons, you may want to replace the default folder icons with a custom icon from an external ICO file. This is how it can be done ;-).

It is also more complicated with the registry key: 


HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Icons


Googling or Bingen!

Questions for this:
  1. First of all, thanks for the lightning-fast answer. I would like, as is the case with the MAC OS, to recolor selected folders. So z. B. Right-click on the folder to get a color selection that turns the yellow Windows original into a red or green folder. So no filters, but a specific color assignment for individual folders. Can something be done without admin rights?
  2. What I still lack as a small tool would be an option to be able to colorize folders in the Explorer and thus make special folders easier to find. Folder Painter, Style Folder and Rainbow Folders can do this, but they require all admin rights and therefore do not run on my PC. Could you integrate such a feature in DesktopOK?
