Folder Customiser

Folder Customiser is a lightweight and portable application that gives you the possibility to change the appearance of directories. It comes in handy for all users who are continuously looking for ways to personalize their operating system.

After picking the folder you want to customize, you can open it and select the "Customize this folder" option from the "View" menu in Windows Explorer. Once you've chosen the "Create or edit an HTML document" setting, you can proceed to the next steps to close the wizard, launch Folder Customiser, and configure settings.

It's wrapped in a single window with a simple design and layout, revealing all options provided by this tool. You can change the folder's font style and color, together with the title and information text size.

Moreover, you can assign a local WAV track as the directory's sound effect and loop it, as well as set background and line images, together with the directory's description. In order to commit changes, it's necessary to overwrite the "Folder.htt" from the target directory.

The entire program's packed in a single .exe file that can be saved anywhere on the disk or copied to a removable storage unit to directly launch it on any PC without setup. It doesn't have any dependencies or make any changes to your system registry. However, it auto-creates and updates an .ini file to remember your settings.

It hasn't received updates for a long time and we've experienced compatibility issues on newer Window versions. On top of that, Folder Customiser is difficult to set up by casual users. Nevertheless, this program features helpful customization options for directories and it's free for non-commercial use.
