If you are looking for a unique way to customize the directories stored on your computer, then Folder Icon Creator is a tool that offers an interesting idea. To put it simply, the idea behind the tool is to change the icon of the folder based on a JPG file inside the directory.

The program does not require installation, as it is portable so simply decompress the archive in the desired location and you can start using it right away. The tool does not come with a GUI, but it is rather a console app so it may not be as appealing for all users, especially the less tech-savvy ones.

As you can preview from the console interface, the tool helps you with many things so that you can keep your media folders clean and duplicate-free. In addition to changing the icon to match the poster JPG file, you can also delete empty folder and subfolders, clean non-relevant metadata files, hide certain files except the videos and subtitles or create a log on your desktop.

It is worth mentioning that the tool includes an Emby plugin with the latest version that works slightly differently than the tool. According to the developer, the plugin is launched each time you change or download a poster image. To make sure that everything works smoothly, you need to make sure that you checked the Save artwork into media folders in the Options menu.

Folder Icon Creator can be a great tool to help you better organize the files and data for your media service server. By simply including a relevant JPG of the contents, you can find the season or content you need without too much hassle.
