My Custom Folder1.0

In case your work computer might not benefit from a great deal of customization options, you might want to make the home PC suit your style. This can be done in quite the variety of ways, ranging from desktop wallpapers, to custom icons on your files and folders. In fact, this is the sole purpose of My Custom Folder, as the name suggests.

Revert to default if you change your mind

On the bright side of things, the application saves you the entire time and effort required to go through a setup process, making it possible to take it for a spin as soon as download is done. More than this, it means you can have it stored on a thumb drive in case you decide to use it on other computers besides your own.As far as the visual design is concerned, the application comes with a custom-made interface, with clear, intuitive buttons and functions. There’s not a lot of effort to invest in customizing a folder, and you also have the chance to revert to default configuration, even after some degree of time.

Add a custom icon and additional tooltip info

Although Windows comes with similar functions to change a folder’s icon, the application wants to make it possible faster. However, it doesn’t integrate itself in the context menu, nor does it support drag and drop as a possible method of loading a folder of interest, so you’re forced to use the built-in browse dialog.Needless to say that one of the core steps along the way is to choose the new icon for the folder. Sadly, the application doesn’t come with a collection of custom icons, so you need to also grab some of interest. They need to be under the ICO format for things to work out. Additionally, you can include tooltip info.

To end with

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that My Custom Folder comes with a decent set of features, but doesn’t really empower or overcome the folder customization options found in Windows. You need to have your own ICO files, while loading the directory of interest is only possible through the browse dialog.
