Hi everyone, can someone help me please
I'm customizing my Windows Explorer folder
I would like to change some folders that are in quick access with these acronyms that I created.
But when I go to set the folder icon and then insert it in quick access the acronym is too small and I can't read it.
Can you please help me to have these images in a resolution as large as possible to set them in the quick access bar?
Thanks a lot for those who will help me

What I'd love to have would be a downscale option for the screenshot folder icon so it matches the quick access icons of the libraries. Currently, it scales down to a plain folder.

im not certain for pinned nav pane items, but if you just add it to your nav pane normally, you can set the icon via registry. i have my recycle bin shell location added to the nav pane and changed the icon via reg
