Changing folder color

Post by Dr0idGh0sT »

Hi,
I have latest cinnamon, Installed Numix-Circle icon pack.
Is there any way of changing folder colors globally? I don't like this orange colors, But anything else is really good.
I have also installed Folder Color extension, But it does not have global change option.
Maybe there is any command or script that'll allow me to change folder colors.

Hi,
I did not ask how to install icon packs or anything like that.
I am asking, How can I change file explorer folder colors in already installed icon pack/theme.
There is extension, "Folder Color", But this only allows to change color for one folder at a time, Not to globally change all folder color.
I like this icon pack and don't want installing another, I want if possible to change folder icons in this icon pack. Also, I checked and icon pack includes another colors of folders, But can't figure out how to change it.

I can remember that Peppermint OS had (or still has) an integrated color-change function for Numix folders; as far as I've seen it always changed the colors of all folders, as the file manager which was open on each change proved.

I'm not quite, but almost sure that it must be the following script which Peppermint just preincluded:

Thank you, It did work.
