We are seeing the same windows icons for years now, till now almost every one including me are bored with the same look and feel of windows icons for my computer , network , internet explorer and folders etc.

Lets give them a different colour with Folder Marker ( shown in the image below ).

 

 

 

 

Folder Marker is a free utility which can allow you to change the color of any windows folder , you can assign any image-coded-icon to any folder so that it can easily catch your attention among various other folders (as shown in the image below ).

 

 

 

Above pictures shows some of the folders of my C: drive, out of all these folders I have given a different colours and icon to all my important folders using Folder Marker.

We have received so many problems from the readers on Troublefixers.com when they insert pen drives into their computers it got detected but doesn’t show up in my computer.

But yesterday night we found a utility called Desk Drive solves this annoying problem as it creates the shortcuts dynamically when a a portable device like USB drive inserted and detected in my computer.

 

 

 

 

 

You can easily selects the media for which you want the shortcuts to be created ( as shown in the image below ).

There are lots of utilities available which are dedicated for the function of changing the desktop wallpaper at periodic intervals of time like Desktop Magic 1.1 , Smart Wallpaper , Wallpaper Desktop etc.

Out of all the utilities above I found Any Wallpaper the best and simple to use and it also consumes less memory as compared to other desktop wallpaper changing programs.

As shown in the image above you just need to click the Add button and browse the folder containing wallpapers.
