Replace lines from 22 to 34 of your original code to:

 

(sc = SolidColor).rgb.hexValue = '00ff00', lrs = [].slice.call((aD = open(fileList[a])).layers)
while(lrs.length) (shft = lrs.shift()).kind == 'LayerKind.TEXT' ? shft.textItem.color = sc : shft.remove()

Hidden status of text layers doesn't prevent from changing their colour.

 

Remove all layer, which one, not text one? But which exact 'all' layer?

semo5C92_0-1622306550896.png

and other layers didn't change their colors what's wrong?

 

#target photoshop;

main();

function main(){

//select folder where PSDs are held

var selectFolder = Folder.selectDialog( "Please select folder of PSDs");

//if no folder selected quit.

if(selectFolder == null) return;

//get an array of all PSDs in the folder

var fileList = selectFolder.getFiles("*.psd");

//iterate through file list

for(var a in fileList){

var textColour = new SolidColor();

textColour.rgb.hexValue = "00ff00"; //set colour to green

open(fileList[a])

if(activeDocument.activeLayer.kind == LayerKind.TEXT){ //check if it is a text layer

  activeDocument.activeLayer.textItem.color = textColour; //set text to colour
  activeDocument.save(); //Save changes
  activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES); //Close document

}else{//not a text layer so close document

 activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES); //Close document

 }

}//end of filelist

};

Instead of:

 

?

 

 put this code:

 

&& shft.name != 'SEMO' ?

 

btw if previous answer is what you wanted mark it as correct solution 😉
