Hello,

Basically the operation should be simple. If you have any specific error, would be ideal that you could share it for more details.

Step by Step, this is how you should run the mentioned Python code:

1. Open a Text Editor: You can use Notepad or Notepad++ to edit and save scripts
2. Once copied and pasted the script from your website, you should save it with the .PY extension to be recognized as a Python script. for example python set_folder_icons.py
3. Then navigate to the folder where the script is saved, for example: cd /path/to/script/folder
4. Run the script with:

python set_folder_icons.py

or

python3 set_folder_icons.py

5. The script should be running normally.

Additionally I can recommend the next article on Get started using Python on Windows for beginners:
