XYplorer Beta Club

Hi all,
I have a router that has external storage attached to it.
It is a simple NAS system.
On my local PC I like to change the folder icons to represent what is contained in that folder.
EG: If the folder contains documents, then I change the folder from a windows folder to my choice of an icon which just so happens to be a brief-case.
I do it this way, I have a desktop.ini file like below and an Icon.ico in the same folder.
[.ShellClassInfo]
IconResource=F:\DATA\EXCEL\Excel.ico,0

This method will not work across a network. The modified folder shows up as a standard windows folder.
I believe XYplorer can see across a network a modified folder and show it as such on the local PC. Am I right in thinking this?
and if yes, how would I go about configuring XYplorer to do this?
Thank you in advance!

This has nothing to do with XYplorer

Set +SH attributes to that desktop.ini file
and +R for the folder that it is in
And if that doesn't work, blame your NAS, it probably uses a different filesystem than NTFS and has no 100% working mapping for Windows attributes...

Thank you, highend.
The filesystem is NTFS
NAS is a basic system.
So, no surprises there.
So, it doesn’t work.
For the time being I will stick with
colour coding the folders
Using Favorites>Set Highlight Colour…
