    Hello Headshot,

    Q1) I'm not sure how or if you can remove Favorites at that location.

    Q2) You can just create a new folder, then change the folder icon to be one of those. Those folder icons are located in the C:\Windows\System32\imageres.dll file.

    Hope this helps,
    Shawn

    for the folder, this folder has a tab that common folder doesn't. look at this:

    Headshot,

    For user folders you can use OPTION TWO below (same in Vista) to change the icons for them, but you cannot change the Desktop and Contacts folder icon though.
