Despite Windows provides some ways to customize folder look since Vista, it doesn't allow you to apply anything but the ICO format. Quite frustrating, as such a limitation requires us to either convert an image to the format Windows understands, or to grin and bear it. Or is there another option?
Yes! FolderIco fixes the problem by simply allowing you to use any PNG picture as a folder icon. Here is how you can do this.
Step 1: Choose a folder
Provided FolderIco is already installed, right-click any folder you want to assign a PNG picture to and choose 'More Icon' submenu. This will open a dialog where you can select multiple supplied icons to assign to the folder.
Step 2: Choose an icon
Scroll through the library to find the image you want and apply it instantly. However, FolderIco gives you an even more powerful option.
