I've never changed the Folder Color on my Desktop. but now since I've retired I have several projects that I do for different groups and I keep getting into the wrong folder. I want to change the color of my folders when needed to suit the purpose

There is no direct way to change the color of a folder; you could add a tag (right-click and select a color) to the folder.


You can change the icon displayed by following these instructions: https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/change-icons-for-files-or-folders-on-mac-mchlp2313/mac
