Folder Colorizer for Windows

Colorize folders on your PC

Give your desktop a fresh look by changing folder colors. Folder Colorizer is a lightweight tool that makes it easy to apply any hue to your folders so they stand out at a glance.

Quick usage guide

To color a folder, right‑click it from File Explorer and choose the color option added by the app — the change is applied immediately and requires no separate program window.

Managing your palette

• Open the Colors… panel to view and edit saved swatches.
• Pick a new shade from the color picker and press +Add color to save it.
• Remove an unwanted swatch by clicking the small “x” in the corner of that color entry.
• See the list of default colors and add your own custom entries below them.

Restore originals

If you want to undo the change, there’s a one‑click option to return a folder to its original yellow icon.

Other options

If you’re exploring alternatives, Folder Painter (a free utility) offers a similar approach for customizing folder icons and may be worth checking out.
