Every day we offer FREE licensed software you’d have to buy otherwise.
Folder Marker Home 4.7 was available as a giveaway on April 6, 2025!
In the ordinary world, we’re using markers, highlighting important documents, or laying them out in folders of different colors. This allows us to be organized and quickly find the information we need. Why don’t we bring the same approach to our computer files world?
This is exactly what today’s deal software is doing. This folder colorizer tool lets you add colors and/or images to Windows' folder icons. Seems trivial, right? Yet once you start using it, you'll wonder why Microsoft never bothered to incorporate such capabilities into Windows. It’s awesome.
Once you have installed Folder Marker, right-click the folder you want to customize. Go to “Mark Folder” item there, and click the icon you like. That is it!
Key features:
* Can change a folder's color. For this purpose, you have 36 icons of normal, dark, and light colors.
* Has 50 image-coded icons build-in to indicate priority, degree of work complete, work status, and the type of information contained in a folder.
* Allows to sort & filter folders in Windows Explorer by assigned color- or image label.
* You can customize the 'Mark Folder' menu for your needs.
* Contains a User Icons tab where you can add an unlimited quantity of icons, downloaded from the Internet.
* Can make customized folders distributable (portable).
P.S.
Please note that this is NOT the latest version of the software. Free updates are not included in the giveaway license, so please ignore the request for an update.

Jet Screenshot is a screenshot sharing tool, helping you to communicate with others visually.

It converts screenshot of your screen to an URL you can share with anyone and adds annotations to it. This helps to show visual bugs, share instructions, show what you see, and make your online communication easier.
Create personalized folder icons with a 3-easy-step approach: choose a template, color it, and select the overlay image. The program sculpts an icon that you can save as an ICO file, which you can then use for folder customization.
Whether it is possible to change an icon for one specific file? Yes, you can change file icon in Windows 10 in 2 clicks.
Will this program allow me to colour my Chrome bookmark folders? Thanx :-)

Thank you for the giveaway but for anyone who is going to take it DO NOT click on the immediate upgrade notice that comes up as if you do & you install it to a newer version you will no longer be registered & the new update will not be accepted by the supplied key for the giveaway. I had to uninstall the upgrade & re install the giveaway & I do know many other giveaways which do not allow future upgrades DO allow one upgrade due to possible security issues but not this time. So be warned. Either way I thank the creator for the giveaway & giveaway of the day for their offer.

If I have the previous version from when it was offered here (4.6 Home) and I install this one, will I get to keep my settings? Like all the icons I added and the folders I used it on? Thank you!
