Can't type in text field in customization in a folder properties

Description

I was going to change the icon of a folder but it wouldn't let type inn the text field it would only let me select icons from shell32.dll. There is a workaround tho, by clicking the "Browse" button i can select my icon file but faster for me to just type it out :(

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Right click a folder and select properties.
  2. Go to customization menu.
  3. Try to type into the text field and it wouldn't work :(

@Steperman5692 thank you for reaching out, the path box is read only by design and the correct workflow is to click browse. Can you confirm if the browse popup works properly?

Yeah its works perfectly fine but it would be nice if we can type the the text field :(

Well, we can make it acceptable, while we need error handling for path validation (with TeachingTip?)

It was to @yaira2 I'm not sure we'll plan to prioritize but this is pretty easy work.

We prefer using the dialog as it has validation and error handling built in.

You can also type the path/filename in the path box of the dialog

I get your feedback, I haven't made a final decision so it's still under consideration.
