Hi,
I just wanted to clean up my Start Menu as I always did using my old PPC device, however, the \Windows folder does not show up on my PC when browsing the Mobile Device. Is this correct? How can I access this folder to do some easy re-arranging of files?
Thanks.
I think Total Commander should let you have access to all the files on the Universal.
I am referring to the normal File Explorer on my dekstop PC. When browsing the mobile device, the \Windows folder is not shown. I can access it on the PPC itself, but being able to do so on the desktop PC would make the whole Start-menu-arranging-thing so much easier!
i haven't had any problems accessing the Windows directory from my PC
if it helps - i get it from:
My Computer -> Mobile Device -> My Windows Mobile-Based Device -> Windows
Hi there i am having the same problem i cannot see the windows folder on my pc and i am useing active syncro 4.1 ,so please if you have any solution can you let me know please
I can't see the Windows folder with my work PC but can at home.
If you're syncing to two pcs maybe only the first one lets you see the Windows folder.
In a file explorer window on your PC, go to drop down menu: Tools - Folder Options... - View Tab - select 'Show hidden files and folders' radio button.
This should now allow /windows to be seen by your PC file explorer.
Genius!
Thanks mate
just upgraded to wm5, where can I get a copy of windows file explorer to install on to my phone thanks.
Is there an application to search file contents? I am looking for such an application regardless of whether it runs in the phone itself or in a activesync'ed computer
If it's an app that runs on windows though will it search the \windows folder? because i cannot access this folder from activesync's file explorer for some reason
How can we transfer files from the device to the PC?
I have done the opposit using reg tweak from file explorer and once in the phone (folder MyDocuments\Zune) changing the name, but I couldn't copy files from the phone (i.e from the Applications folder) to the PC, tried to copy them to the Zune folder but didn't show in the PC explorer...
Any idea?
Hi,
Sorry if this is a stupid question. The Nexus 7 is my first Android device and something has got me a little stumped:
I am using ES File Explorer to access the file system on my Nexus 7 (not rooted, stock JB). If I connect my Nexus 7 to Windows Vista and create a new directory in Windows Explorer I can see the directory in ES File Explorer however if I create the directory in ES File Explorer I can't then see it in Windows Explorer. Why is this....?
I have also noticed that files I have deleted from /sdcard/Download (deleted from within Android) are sometimes still visible in Windows Explorer.
Am I missing something?
TIA,
Ed
