Hi

No, all guides that are not selected have to be the same color. In Illustrator, you can make one choice only for the guides that are not selected in Preferences > Guides and Grid

But selected guides will be the color of the layer.

Hi harshinim5407457
As per my experience, it aint possible in Photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign. Yes you can rather differentiate the color between Smart Guides, Guides and Grids from [Adobe Product]>Edit>Preferences>Guides, Grids & Slices.

Syed

Actually, it is possible in InDesign: just select the guide(s) you want to change the color of and choose Layout -> Ruler Guides...

More people should do the same. Always helpful to see new insights on older threads
