Windows XP Create personalized system folder icons change randomly

Have you ever wanted to use your favorite picture as a folder icon? As shown in Figure 1, I chose the emblem of the Beijing Olympic Games as the icon for the folder. What's Up, heartbeat? Next, just come with me to create a folder of your own personality.

Figure 1

First of all, prepare a nice picture of the icon. Icons can be made themselves, will not make or have no relevant software does not matter, a lot of online, and windows have a lot of icons, you can choose from a favorite icon.

Next, create a new folder, such as: C:\ABC. Copy the icon file to this folder. Suppose the icon file name is Tu.ico.

Open Notepad and enter the following text in it:

[. ShellClassInfo]

Infotip= This is the Czl folder, not allowed to open without my permission.

Iconfile=tu.ico

Then save the file, save the location as C:\ABC (that is, the newly created folder) with the file name Desktop.ini (Note: file names and extension names cannot be faulted).

OK, the final step is to change the properties of the folder ABC to System properties. How to change it? Methods are as follows: Start MS-DOS mode, input: attrib c:\abc +s, enter. Exit MS-DOS mode. If your system is Windows 98, then you can also modify, run "Winfile", enter C disk, select the ABC folder, select "File-attribute (T) ...", Pop-up Properties dialog box, select the "System" property, click OK.

Now let's take a look at this folder, what's the change? Refresh yourself. is the icon for the folder changed?

Note: (1) after "infotip=" is the description of the contents of the folder. When we set up a view of the Web page in the parent folder and the folder is selected, the content after "=" is displayed.

(2) after "iconfile=" the content is the path and name of the icon file. When the icon file is not in the current folder, write the path to the icon.
