    Globally changing all folder icons


    Is there a way to change all icons for folders to a custom one instead of changing every single one separately?

    I tried looking for a way to do this, but haven't found a way yet. Maybe if you find where the icon is located and then replace it with a new one?

    I found this program, Change Folder Icons 8.5. The download is just a trial version but I think it might serve the purpose of changing your default folder icon.

Hey guys, is there anyway to change the icons in my user folder? For example the "My Music" and "My Videos" folders? When I go to the properties and go to the Customization tab, there is no option to change the icon like other folders have. Any ideas?
