All the apps to color code the names of files and folders from Windows 7, as on the Macintosh?

Before I upgraded to Windows 7, I had a wonderful program on my XP machine called Xentient labels, which have changed the windows explore interface so I could have any icon file or folder on any drive highlighted in any color I want, as with Macintosh.  As a blind person it is very important to me and helps me organize and find things faster.
Can anyone recommend any software that could do this for Windows 7, please?    Thanks for any help or advice!

There are FREE 3rd party applications for it. They look pretty cool and they are both FREE.

I tried one of them now (I have found no spyware or virus / trojans / malware)

  • Change the name of files and folders in data warehouses

    Is it safe while a virtual machine is running to change the name of the VMDK files and folders in a data store?

    I discovered that a VMS VMDK files have a different name for the virtual machine itself, then someone changed the name of the virtual machine after you have created the records

    I had to do it a few times, will try to document the process that I follow.  If you have many warehouses of data, then make a note of what data store, the machine is in.  The next step is to unregister the virtual machine from vCenter / ESXi

    Then, you need to enable SSH on your ESXi host

    Use Putty or something similar for you connect to the ESXi host

    Run the following commands (in italics)

    cd vmfs/volumes / that is, if the data store that contains the virtual computer is named datastore1 then you would run cd/vmfs/volumes/datastore1

    Then run ls to verify that the virtual machine file is here

    Rename the folder by using mv

    Change to the folder with cd

    Rename the nvram, vmsd, vmx and running again is to say the mv

    MV oldname.vmx newname.vmx

    MV 1234.hlog - oldname newname - 1234.hlog

  • To access the files and folders from the hard drive Windows 7 on Windows XP, access denied error message.

    Original title: portable destroyed - need for car access

    I don't know if this is the right forum - please advice if it is not.

    My friend's laptop computer was destroyed in a car accident. I pulled the drive and placed it in my desktop XP system and the drive appear in good health. However, I received permission issues trying to access records on the disk and thought that it was because of me using Win XP and the laptop was Win7x64. My questions below are based on the assumption that I'm not able to access these files on my Win XP system. If this assumption is incorrect, so please let me know.

    I have a laptop that I don't use and put the disk in it. I was hoping it would be plug and play all the new material, but after reading a little online, I know that this is not the best thing to do and will probably not work as did the earlier versions of Windows.

    In the end, I care retrieves the contents of the disc, although it would be great if I could lend my laptop for a few weeks with "its files" until it sorts how to replace the laptop.

    Can I get the player Win7x64 working on the laptop computer of replacement by reinstalling Win7x64 on this laptop? I'm not "means a clean install/reformat, but have rather the Setup program detects an existing installation, and do its magic to get the operating system runs on new hardware?"

    I know that this raises questions of MS licenses. If the installation process could get his old system running on the laptop replacement, if I have a small window of time completely to access his files before being forced to re-register the OS? I'm hoping so.

    I'm looking for only a short-term solution - I do not recommend that he hopes that drive long term because the laptop got quite truncated of the accident, and once he gets a new laptop it will have everything he needs on this subject (OS, licenses, etc.). If I have a small window of time where I can simply copy their important files, or to lend him my laptop with its player and him can bring to its domestic network and the print out of all the things that are important, that it's going to be all together to move them to a new laptop when it is available.

    Thank you

    Original title: Big Stick required

    For many years, I used XP Professional.  A few years ago, due to a scare, I added a password.  The disc recently got upset and the machine wouldn't boot.  The drive is now working as a slave on another PC, but now a number of files is not accessible.  I tried xcacls.vbs to view permissions without success.  Does anyone know a "big stick" to use in the circumstances, please?

    You should be able to take possession of the problematic files...

  • Change the properties of files and folders

    I recently changed the computer name and administrator, but I can't delete properties of former directors, i.e. name of files and folders. How can I do this?

    Where in poperties are you talking about?  Here is the list of authorized users - security and if you are looged Admin everything you need to do is click on edit and select another administrator, and then click on delete and it's done.  I don't think that this deletion process can be done throughout the world - and if is not necessary as this other account administrator is no longer eistss or has been disabled.  You should already be added to the Administrators group so that your username does not need to be added for access.

    If this isn't security, where are you talking about?  What are the 'properties' belong to the former administrator.  I don't understand.  Could you please further explain and tell me exactly how to get to the screen you are talking about?  In addition, please explain what you are tyring to accomplish by doing this - what is the problem with the other 'properties' of the administrator that you need to remove the name and I guess only to insert your new name?

  • Error message "Access denied" on the sharing of files and folders on a dual-boot computer.

    I have a Dual Boot PC - the two Windows 7 Home Premium - one 32-bit, 64-bit.

    If I try to access files created in the 32-bit system to the 64-bit system, I get "Access Denied" errors. This is extremely annoying as its my PC, my data, my everything!

    The only way to solve the problem seems to be to give all permissions to "Everyone", but then I get my parcel Internet Security complain bitterly that my PC is now open to piracy because I gave "Everyone" full access permissions.

    I searched the Web and Microsoft, but I never seem to find exactly what I'm looking for; part of my search text seems to have more weight than another. For example, I add "in the system to dual-boot" and I get links to creating a dual boot system.

    If anyone has any suggestions on how to grant permissions to access 32-bit system folder to the main user on the 64 bit system, I would be very grateful.

    Thank you very much.

  • Files and folders with the same name

    I am trying to unzip some files and folders and it works fine on my computer with Windows XP. However, when you use Windows Vista I can't because there are folders and files with the same name. After an internet search, it seems that the only suggestion is to extract the files in separate folders which then would allow them to keep the same name. The problem is I want what they in the same folder and they need to have the names they have.

    NOTE: I do have two files with the same name in the same folder, I have a folder and a file with the same name. I would have thought that this would be acceptable because they are two things separate, and given that it's great under XP.

    All solutions?

    You are right, if I make a file and a text file with the same name, it works fine. However, when I try to extract the files I need it tells me that there is already a file with the same name as the folder. He goes to tell me to choose a new name but my only options are 'try again', 'jump' or 'Cancel '.

    I think I can understand what the problem is. For some reason when you download the zip file, the computer seems to have added a few files side with any format other than "file." It is those who have the same name as the folders as if they were, and they could not be uncompressed because of this. I have no idea whence they came as they appear from nowhere (compared to my XP). I'm trying now unzip the files separately and exclude the strange s 'file '.

    Thanks for your help though!

  • Can I globally change the names of files and or directory to lowercase to uppercase?

    in Windows XP or in Windows 7, globally change the names of files and or directory to lowercase to uppercase?

    A single configuration change probably will not accomplish this.

    Your best bet is probably the freeware "Bulk Rename Utility" program which has a section dedicated to change the case of file names.
