| Change Compressed File Color SUMMARY: Easily distinguish compressed files from within Windows XP Explorer.
If your hard drive contains compressed files, Windows XP displays them in a different color. Normally, compressed files are in blue, encrypted files are in green, and when you hover over files, they will be displayed in dark blue. If you would rather change these colors to your liking:
1. Download and run Tweak UI for Windows XP.
2. When the "Tweak UI" window appears, click "Explorer" in the left pane to expand the menu.
3. Click "Colors".
4. Next to the three options, "Compressed files", "Hot-tracking", and "Encrypted files", click on the respective color to change how Explorer displays the files.
5. When done, click "OK" to close the dialog box.
