The title,lol

╳☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁☁╳

Example:

Step 1.1

Wanna make it a normal folder icon but custom? like ''test2''? Search for ''(color) file icons'' and get the one that you like

Step 1.2

Have the pics that you want to have as a file icon?

Edit them in any editor (you may need step 3 for this) , i use picsart

Step 2

Get rid of the ugly background

I use adobe's

Step 3

Make it a ''.ico'' file

i use:

Step 4!

Click on the file that you want to change, then properties.

Now go to personalize and go all the way down.

You see this? click change icon.

 

Theres a bunch of other icons already, but to add yours click examinate, go to where the .ico file is, select it.

I believe you can go from there, just click accept, then apply (before you close it, or it wont change lol), and done.
