As far as the Windows 10 design in concerned, the File Explorer icon is now more colorful following users’s request: The File Explorer icon’s colors are now more balanced, and yellow dominates the view. The right upper corner design and colors were kept, while the violet half square from the middle has been replaced with a blue ciel one on a yellow background. The File Explorer icon from previous builds created a lot of fuss among users. Most of them did not like the design and classified it as being ugly and awful. Gabe Aul assured users that the build team explored various ways to adjust the yellow icon to the general black and white Windows app and that was the best possible match. He never really succeeded in convincing users to accept that color design, and we can see the result in the latest build. Aul still won a battle since Insiders did not ask Microsoft to restore the File Explorer icon back to the taskbar by default. If you’d also like to bring back the File Explorer icon to the taskbar, you can easily pin it back. It is interesting to see that Microsoft reads each and every note of feedback sent by Windows 10 users. Nevertheless, we can’t help but raise an eyebrow seeing how long this File Explorer icon design saga has been trailing. Maybe Microsoft should direct resources towards solving more urgent issues and bury the File Explorer icon debate once and for all. RELATED STORIES YOU NEED TO CHECK OUT:
