My favourites Bar icons in Windows 11 are not coloured. How can I restore the colour.

Thanks for posting this, I too can confirm this works.

Instead of the stable version, install and use the beta version (132.0.2957.55, Dec 16, 2024) which has the yellow folders.

Thanks!

I don't know if it will help with getting this resolved or not.
