105. Personalize your Explorer window

Feel bored with the white background for your thumb drive explorer?

To fresh it with a colorful wallpaper, copy the code below (green color) and paste it into notepad and save as desktop.ini:

[{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}]
ICONAREA_IMAGE=ur_desired_wallpaper.jpg
ICONAREA_TEXT=222

ICONAREA_IMAGE=ur_desired_wallpaper.jpg replace it with ur wallpaper name with the file location and file extension.

ICONAREA_TEXT=222 means that u can change the text color, click on the link below to find out the code for desired color.

U can also personalize the icon for ur hard drive/thumb drive, and it is simple. All u need to do is copy the code below (purple color) and paste it into notepad and save as autorun.inf .
[autorun]
icon=iconname.ico

PS: Both desktop.ini and autorun.inf MUST place it on the root, eg. F:/, G:/. But for the wallpaper and icon, it is not necessary, u can place it into a sub-folder with anyna
me, eg. if u put the wallpaper into a subfolder named HERE, u must change the ur_desired_wallpaper.jpg to HERE/ur_desired_wallpaper.jpg. Same thing with the icon.
