I don't think it's possible since it's really just linking that actual folder, and not creating a shortcut file to that folder.

But if I use the "add to Quick Access" from the context menu, it takes across the name and the icon......

Wait, so PS isn't bringing over the icon for you? It does for me, just like using the context menu would.

No, but I am using some Registry trickery to create the folder I am trying to pin to Quick Access

Ah, gotcha. Hopefully somebody else here has tried to do the same and will reply then.

Interesting that it works for "normal" folders though...

So for posterity, what you need is a desktop.ini file in the folder you are pinning to handle the icon and the window title

`$o = new-object -com shell.application`
`$DesktopIni = @"`
`[.ShellClassInfo]`
`IconResource=C:\windows\system32\OneDrive.ico,0`
`"@`

`Add-Content "$($FolderLocation)\desktop.ini" -Value $DesktopIni`
`(Get-Item "$($FolderLocation)\desktop.ini" -Force).Attributes = 'Hidden, System, Archive'`
`(Get-Item $FolderLocation -Force).Attributes = 'ReadOnly, Directory'`
`$o.Namespace($ENV:OneDriveUserPath).Self.InvokeVerb("pintohome")`

Shit, you know what? I knew that since I've done this very thing in the past (custom folder/shortcut icon).

Don't worry, I should have known it too - one of my new CTO colleagues sorted it for me in about five minutes

It's one of those things that I've done literally just once, years ago, and totally forgot about it.

I'm embarrassed to admit I've written articles setting up the desktop.ini files using Group Policy and didn't twig it

Found my lone example:

```#==============================================
# Change the desktop folder icon
#==============================================
New-Item -Path "$env:Public\Desktop\Remote Client $Build - DBUpdate\" -ItemType Directory -Force
$TargetDirectory = "$env:Public\Desktop\Remote Client $Build - DBUpdate\"

$DesktopIni = @"
[.ShellClassInfo]
IconResource="$PF\Microsoft\Edge\Application\EpicHHDBUpdt$Ver1.exe"
"@

Add-Content "$($TargetDirectory)\desktop.ini" -Value $env:Public\DesktopIni
(Get-Item "$($TargetDirectory)\desktop.ini" -Force).Attributes = 'Hidden, System, Archive'
(Get-Item $TargetDirectory -Force).Attributes = 'ReadOnly, Directory'
#==============================================```

Remarkably similar :slightly_smiling_face:

I don't think I got my idea from your blog, but I'll laugh if I did.
