One Drive folder colour color
When using the One drive / pc folder structure on third applications the route of the folder can be lost due to the small viewing address of some third party applications.
If one drive folders were a different colours to pc folders this would assist in understanding of the folder location (Cloud blue/ pc yellow). The sync cloud icon in the task bar works in a similar way for business accounts and personal accounts. White and blue cloud icons.
- Im test driving o365\onedrive considering migrating from workspace\google drive. In g-drive i can change the color of folders. It doesnt display the changed color to other users\accounts and it doesnt change the display in the explorer, but....its a really nice feature.
- 1500 views and no comments. Am i missing something? Is this already a solution elsewhere?
I don't think that the request / ask was all that clear. Are you asking for a way to change the colour of the synchronised folder hierarchy on the desktop? And leaving everything else the same?
Can you also please provide more information on the third party products and how exactly they're interfering with the usability / navigability of the folder structures.
- Hi Steven,
On my pc my folders are yellow. On my cloud drive my folders are yellow.
My business one drive icon is blue and my personal cloud icon is grey.
When using folders on a pc or cloud they all look the same "yellow".
Could cloud folders be a different colour to pc folders? to stop them looking the same?
- I'd love to see the OneDrive color folders show up in Windows like the web. macOS has had the option to have colored folders for years and it'd be nice to see the same in Windows!
