Ah, simplicity, thy name is Rainbow Folders. With but a push of a button, today's free file lets you customize the color and style of any folder in your system.

You might wonder why you'd want to change any of the folders from the cookie-cutter, worker drone, mind-numbing yellow-beige they are now. Well, not to put too fine a point on it, it's boring. Beyond adding a little variety to your life, changing the color of your folders can also aid in organization.

Are a series of documents really important? Make them red. Does a folder contain something interesting, but not crucial to your job? How about making it green. Kind of important, but not really important documents can be nestled in an orange folder. Get the picture?

Aside from changing folder colors, you can also attach a customizable note or add a strongly worded message warning not to delete the folder.
