The Icon Color feature in the SpecsIntact Explorer offers extensive personalization options for folder and file icons by assigning new colors to the main Jobs and Masters folders and various file types. Changing the color of the main Jobs or Masters folders applies that color to all Jobs and Masters system-wide. You have the flexibility to select pre-defined colors, choose colors from an extensive palette of colors, or create custom colors to distinguish these elements visually within the SpecsIntact Explorer.
