The libraries folder in Windows 10 It is the one in which we find documents, images, music or saved images. So it is a special folder within the operating system. Access is simple, just open the file explorer and in the panel that appears on the right side of the screen we can choose libraries.

One thing Windows 10 users really like is being able to customize aspects of the operating system. This is something we can do today, given that we have the opportunity to change the Libraries icon in a simple way.

We start by opening a run window, so we use the Win + R command to open it. In this window we write the command "regedit" and then we give it to execute. By doing this, we are opening the Windows 10 registry. Once there, we have to go to the following path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER software Classes CLSID {031E4825-7B94-4dc3-B131-E946B44C8DD5}.

We must choose the key {031E4825-7B94-4dc3-B131-E946B44C8DD5} and right click on it. We will get several options and we must click on new and key. We give it a name, which can be DefaultIcon or something like that. We double click and change the default value that it has.

When we have edited the "Value information" field, we can only indicate the path of this icon that we want to show from now on in the Libraries folder. Therefore, you just have to look for the icon on your computer and access its path. We accept when we have done so and We just have to restart Windows 10. Then the changes will be saved.

The next time you turn on the computer, we'll see that the icon displayed in the Libraries folder in Windows 10 is the one you have chosen. We can change it whenever we want, since the procedure will always be the same as what we have indicated here.
