Compressed Files in colour...

If you have scrambled or compressed files stored on your computer using Windows XPʹs built‐in encryption facility, you can make Explorer display those files in a different colour for easier recognition.

To do this:‐

Open My Computer

Click the Tools menu,

Click Folder Options

Then the View tab.

Tick the box marked ʹShow encrypted or compressed NTFS files in colourʹ and press OK.
