Try:
VBA Code:
Sub ColorRows()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim v As Variant, i As Long, x As Long: x = 4
    v = Range("A2", Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Value
    With CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
        For i = LBound(v) To UBound(v)
            If Not .exists(v(i, 1)) Then
                .Add v(i, 1), Nothing
                If x = 4 Then
                    x = 6
                Else
                    x = 4
                End If
                With ActiveSheet
                    .Range("A1").CurrentRegion.AutoFilter 1, v(i, 1)

Hi, it is working good. Only issues is the row after last used row also filled with color, filling color has to be stopped with last used row. Thanks for your efforts.
