SINCE I AM AN ILLETERATE IN POCKETPC I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO AND I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GET THIS FILE OR LOOK FOR IT,CAN ANY ONE HELP ME PLEASE
well it sounds like there is a shortcut in windows\Startup
to a program called INCSP20.exe
which is not located the place that the shortcut indicates
you could
try and move the shortcut out of StartUp
or make a new shortcut to the place that INCSP20.exe is located and
put that in the startup dir
if it's needed for something
thank you rudegar
thank you rudegar
but how can i do what you told me to do.
well i always use total commander
http://www.ghisler.com/pocketpc.htm
but i suppose you can also use file explore which is already on your pda under programs in the start bar
then you navigate to the dir
windows\Startup
and remove the entry called INCSP20
(you may want to copy it somewhere else just in case you need it for something)
but how you make shortcuts or edit them in file explore i dont know
it's easy with total commander

Hello,
I know there are some threads talking about this already however they're very confusing to me and to a lot of people.
I have Total Commander installed and I would like to know exactly how to make a shortcut for skype and tell m it to overclock to 240Mhz when skype opens.
I have tried some methods but never get it working.
Could someone really give a detailled step by step on how to do this please.
Thank you
Ok I will try to make this easy
1. place omapclock.exe in device \program files\
2. use template provided which is a lnk file
3. change the lnk name to what ever suits I.e. skype omap
4. With total commander or gsfinder etc change properties\shortcut just replace * by name of program
N.B. (The lnk file is placed in windows\start menu\programs where there are lnk (link) files to all your other programs.
Rename the file using a file explorer to Say 'Skype omap.lnk' and place it in above folder
With the file explorer (you need total commander or gsfinder or resco etc...) you can change properties of lnk file file\properties\shortcut and edit the location.)
and that's it should work. all of syntax is correct cuz this is what I use
Hey,
Thank you so much for your prompt response ! It's working perfectly !!!
Great help !
Nice and easy to follow !!!
Thank you again !
I don't get it...this is a zip file? Do you have to open it on the PDA or what?
yes its a zip file open on your pda - cant post lnk file needed to be zipped
run a program when the phone first starts up?
To be as short as you with your question:
WINDOWS > AUTOSTART
add shortcut or executable
well let me b a little more long winded so i can get a more specific answer...i want to take a program and automatically have it run whenever i turn on the phone...which would in-tern..make my life much easier...what would be the way for me to do such a thing...thank you in advance...i would appreeciate it
Yep, my answer is still the same:
Add a shortcut of that particular program to the WINDOWS AutoStart folder. You might have a shortcut for the program you want to run at startup in your START MENU ??? Open FILE EXPLORER (or similar applications), navigate to: C:\Windows\Start Menu\Programs and copy the shortcut. Now navigate to C:\Windows\AutoStart and paste the shortcut there.

I'm confused. On my Apache, you place a shortcut to the program you want to run in "\Windows\Startup" I use Total Commander to make the shortcut, but there are other ways. Isn't the MDA the same?
It depends on your ROM version too!
If you do not have an AUTOSTART folder but a STARTUP folder then you have to put it in there! On my MDA it is called AUTOSTART
Hi -
This is driving me crazy and I can't find anywhere to answer it (I'm sure it's trivial to most of you).
I copied a game (just the .exe file - not a .cab) into the \program files\games folder. The game icon is in that folder and it runs just fine - from that folder.
How do I get the icon to display whenever I Start/Programs/Games ? I'm guessing that it must be that I did not formally install and register it as a .cab but I am not that familiar with this OS to be sure.
TIA
Thats why it doesnt show up, because it's not installed. One thing you can do is get something like iLauncher and make the .exe a shortcut... and the icon will show up on your today screen.
Thank you! Is there a way to package the .exe in to a .cab file such that it properly registers as a game in to the game folder? Again, let me guess - get an existing .cab file and decipher it and use my .exe instead of the one that's in the .cab? Just a guess.

I have no idea how to make a CAB file... why not just find the game online, download the installer.. install it, and replace the .exe file with yours.
Hmmm.. Not trying to set the cat amoung the pigeons, but I'm not sure you need something installed to have an icon.
A few months back, I downloaded a battleships game that was just an .exe. I copied the exe onto my storage card, then placed a shortcut to it in the Windows/Start Menu/Games folder. When I open the Start > Programs > Games folder the icon showed up nicely.
Sorry, I've got no definitive answer on this, or even anything constructive to add, just concerned that I think you might be heading down the wrong path with the "cab needed" thing.
Ok, cool - I can try that - thanks! Right now it's not on the storage card and the program, not a shortcut is in the games folder in main storage.

I found instructions on how to create a cab file on MSDN (Microsoft Developers Network). Search MDSN for "cab wizard".
As for installing one program, and replacing its exe with another, I'd be careful about doing that - there may be checksums, registry entries, other required system files, etc. which may not play well with the new exe.
In the old days, you could get away with things like that. Today, you don't have a clue what and where a cab file places system entries. There are .ini files, .xml files, etc. involved in a cab file and I wouldn't want to second guess what is supposed to go where. (Open one with winrar and check it out).

Don't know if links like above are permitted - if not - mod please delete and I apologize.

Heres a very simple and very small program I made with MortScript. I call it QuickReboot 1.0. It will ask you if you whant to soft-reset your phone. It works best if you map it to a hardware button, well, It does for me.
READ! VERY IMPORATANT HOW TO USE: Unzip the zip file and move the file "QuickReboot" to the My device folder (The root of your device) Then click on it. It will then make a shortcut to itslef in the programs folder. Then use it whenever you need to soft-reset. TO UNINSTALL IT: Open your file explorer and goto /Windows/start-menu/Programs and delete it from that folder. Then its completely gone from your device
IF YOU TAP ON THE FILE WHEN ITS NOT IN THE "My device" FOLDER, IT CANNOT MAKE A COPY TO "Programs" FOLDER!
Requirements: Mortscript 4.0
(You need MortScript 4.0 to use QuickReboot)
If you don't have mortScript 4.0 download here: http://www.sto-helit.de/downloads/mortscript/MortScript-4.0.zip
Free and NOT SPACE-TAKING
Cool, im gonna try it on my TP. thx
thanks and correction
first of all thanks! that's exactly what i was looking for.
second, i had to edit your code a little because the copying didnt work. your path was ".../start-menu/..." and should have been ".../start menu/..."
I have an exe that I found that I would like to add to my programs list. Is there a quick way to do this?
I can run it from file manager, but would like it to show up on the start menu or in list of programs
What you need to do is copy the file into
my device / windows / start menu / programs. Then paste it as a shortcut.
Hope this helps.
the in built file explorer wont let u do that. try total commander
When i right-click (hold the finger to the file) i get the following menu where you can see : Send shortcut to programs. It becaomes available in programs then.
Create a shortcut to the exe file using your file explorer and place shortcut in /windows/start menu/programs.
Thanks for everyone's help! I got it to work.
Glad you got it sorted.
