OK, Bill Gates is one of the richest guy on the planet. Why would you want to change what he thinks is right for all of us and we all seem to deal with?

To change the drive letter he will let you do that sort of easy.

Start, Settings, Control Panel, Admin tools, Computer Management, Disk management, (right click the drive and pick change drive letter), etc.

Lighten up, Hero. This is ****-chat. It's no skin off your nose. If you hate Microsoft so much, don't read the post.

Using your mouse's right button, "right click" on the screen icon you wish to change. A small window will pop up and then you click on PROPERTIES. Another window opens with about four tabs at the top. The SHORTCUT tab should automatically be the window you see on your screen, if not click on the tab labeled SHORTCUT. There is a prompt box labeled CHANGE ICON. Click on it to open a window showing alternate icons, or you can also browse the PC to find one.
To use a photo or thumbnail for a folder icon, you'd have to create a thumbnail of your desire, save it to a file and then substitute it for those boring manilla yellow folders in Windows. Otherwise, you can also set your screen to display "thumbnails" instead of details and such.
That's easily done by opening EXPLORER, then click on VIEW at the very top of the screen. Click on THUMBNAILS and you're good to go. I typically prefer DETAILS since I like to see the extra info. about the files at a quick glance.
