You can append labels to important folders and files in order to distinguish them visually. These labels appear as a colored bar around the item’s name. This coloration appears whether you are viewing the item in List, Icon, or Column view. You can use labels to help organize folders and files. For example, business folders and files can have red color labels while letters to friends can have blue color labels. When you have a folder or file selected, you may not be able to view the exact color of the label. To view the color of the label properly, click outside the icon of the folder or file. The label remains constant if you change the folder or file. For example, you can change the name or move the folder or file, and the label remains the same color. There is no preassigned meaning to a label color. For example, you can use red labels for personal or work items, for movies, for folders that are full, or for work that needs to be done. For more information about folder and file views, see Chapter 2.

Can I change a label color to another color? Yes. You can repeat Steps 1 to 2 and then select a different color. The folder or file appears with the new label color that you selected.
