Folder Icons

[dhare]

Hello Everyone,

This is my 1st post on this form so please forgive if it's posted in the wrong place.

I am trying to replace the generic folder icon with a different .icn file. I use liteicon for this.
after I reboot the folders do not change but when I go to the folders "Info" window it shows the new icon.

I have tried the following.
Unlock folder
Refresh finder
disable SIP
create new folder and use copy/past method

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You

LiteIcon seems to be for modifying system icons. You could try using fileicon instead.

or you may just need a different image, not the .icn file. you can also make icons, with an app like https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/46214/plaster

you can use that to paste an image onto a folder, then use THAT image to drag into liteicon (disable SIP first of course!)
