Windows 7 Tree Structure Resource Management Current Folder Tag

Windows 7 Explorer is very different from XP. One of them is the default navigation pane on the left. It is displayed in a tree structure, allowing you to quickly locate it. Some deeper folder. However, one less intimate point is that it does not clearly identify the current folder, but we can manually add a conspicuous logo to it.

ready to work, you need to gather some transparent background .ico icon file format, stored in a relatively fixed place.

Let's get started now, first of all start the Registry Editor regedit in the Start menu search box enter;

navigate to the next HKEY_LOCAL_MacHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\explorer\\ShellIcons ;

Note: If you expand the explorer did not find ShellIcons this one, right on the explorer, "new" a "key" will rename "ShellIcons", pay attention to capitalization and intermediate spaces.

then proceeds to the right pane, a new right "string value" and named "4" (if the "4" does not exist), and finally in the "4" upper right choice "Modify (M ), "Data Value" fill in the full path of the icon you want to transform, and then exit the Registry Editor after confirming.

put your hand the work being done to save it, log off the system and then log back in, and then open Explorer to see, is not the selected folder icon changed it? Not only is there a change in this place, look at the program folder in the Start menu, or check the Registry Editor again.
