So this might not be entirely correctly placed, but since I assume it would require some code, this was the best place to put this.
I recently got a USB flash drive I want to use as a backup for personal files (photo's, documents etc.) and also to have a standard place to put larger files I don't want on low storage devices (mainly movies). To organise this a bit more, I would like to have custom folder icons for all sorts of folders. I figured out I could change the usb drive icon by putting the icon as ''anyname.ico'' and autorun.inf file with the code 

[Autorun]
Icon=anyname.ico
Label=USB-drive

in the root of the drive. This works fine on all devices.

However, I would like to do something similair to other folders on the drive (and subfolders). How can I do this so it would work for all PCs. I'm running Windows 10 (home)
