    Libraries folder


    Hello, in my Windows 10 pro, I have on the left pane a folder called Libraries. I would like to change the name and possibly change the ugly icon. I know I can hide it. But that wont help because I can not create a custom made folder in the left pane.

    Is there a way through the registry? I try the reg file Take Ownership but it does not appear in the context menu. Thank you
