New postHow to decorate your Pendrive or Partition

Do you want to decorate and beautify your pendrive background or partition? Would you like to change it to nice background picture instead of white boring background? I will teach you how to do that.

1)First of all, you need to have these 2 important files..Get it HERE.(updated link)


2)Unzip it. Actually there are 1 folder called Folder Settings and the other one is file called desktop.ini. Copy Folder Settings and desktop.ini into your selected location like C: partition or D: or pendrive.(where you want to change the background ).

3)FIY, usually this 2 files are invisible.So, in order to able to see them, go to Folder Option > View, check "Show Hidden files" and uncheck "Hide Protected Operating system files". Then click OK.
-By now,you should be able to look the files.





4)Now, the implementation part. Let say you want to put the scenery pics as a background in your pendrive. Go to Folder Settings and find the related picture in it.( actually, you can put any pics in this folder)
...for instance, the picture name is "scenery.jpg".

5)Now, open desktop.ini files by double clicking on it. Find this line :-
IconArea_Image=Folder Settings\nice.jpg

and replace it with:-

IconArea_Image=Folder Settings\scenery.jpg

6)DONE ! Refresh your Pendrive or partition.

#To make the folder hidden again after changing the background, go to Folder Option > View, uncheck Show Hidden files and check Hide protected operating system files. Finish.



Here's what my partition look like before and after.















Nice isn't it? Now its your turn to change your background...Have fun!

-To change back background to normal, just delete desktop.ini files and Folder Settings...

-It seems nice.jpg is not exist in Folder Settings. So just change it to any available images..Be sure to specify the image format.
:-For example : fish.jpg/logo.bmp..
pls send the files to me at

@razak - Do you carefully read the post? Like I said in the post, the files are hidden.So you have to follow step no.3 to be able to view the files..
thanks for the visual enhancement trick.

It's always good to add a little customisation to your PC, and to the software it runs.
Desktop wallpapers, screensavers, alternative icon's, new sounds and so forth have been around for as long as Windows (almost), whereas PC modding changes the actual hardware of the PC which also adds some interest to an otherwise bland box.
Thanks for the tips!
Please feel free to check out my blog too... soon to loaded with some of my own tips and experiences within IT, specifically hardware but some software related tips will surely follow.
