What is it?
FolderHighlight is a small but powerful tool that changes the visual appearance of the folders in your PC. With FolderHighlight you can quickly change the color of any folder.
Even though Windows already allows you to customize folder icons for this purpose, FolderHighlight is a much easier to use as it integrates into the Explorer right-click menu, so you can quickly mark any folder without having to go through additional dialogs.
How it works?
We receive about 80% of all information through the eyes, and the
same 80% of our memories consist of images. When you are browsing
through dozens of visually similar folders, you are not using your
vision to its full extent and thus your activity is less effective
than it could be. But if some of these folders have a different color,
they will catch the eye faster than you read
their name. This way you can easily differentiate between folders and
browse much faster, because you are using your vision much more
efficiently.
Who needs it?
- People who want a quick and convenient way to arrange and categorize information stored in their PCs.
- People who work with a lot of documents and want to improve the efficiency and speed of their work.
- People who want their operation system to look cleaner and nicer.
How to use it?
FolderHighlight is very easy to use no matter how much do you know
about your PC. To change color of a folder, right-click the required
folder with your mouse, select FolderHighlight in the context
menu and then choose a suitable appearance for the folder.
