I thought I would never post 'coz I am very good at trying to look for issues I have with my MDA but my current dilemma had me really stumped. I have this "file" on my miniSD card named tE and is 1.5gig and I just can't delete it. It all happened when I installed emoze and sync'd with my Outlook. "My Documents" was deleted from my SD and this file came up but I just can't delete it. My MP3's and video files are gone but my sd card still reads the same amount of space like all my media are still present! Please help!
simple, get all ur files from the sd card, format it, and recopy them again...
or at least try to delete the file by connecting it to a usb card reader!!

Thank you very much for your quick reply. I tried that already and even used an sd adaptor to try to delete the file but all my efforts were futile. Copying all my files even gives me an error on my active sync. Everything seems to work though except for about 1.2gigs of files missing but still occupying my sd card.
I have a number of corrupt files/folders on my Storage Card. Can't delete them with Resco File Explorer. Any ideas what is causing them and how to fix or get rid of them?
i have that also i cant delete them there really annoying!
i tried a full bad sector recovery using Pocket Mechanic. took 18 hours but said there were no problems.
If you wanna delete them, just use the card reader and check the properties. If they are saying read only, then uncheck it and delete them as you want. Or the last straw is you can just copy whatever files on the SD card to your pc, then format the whole card and copy back the files to the card.
they are not Read Only but you can't delete them. moving everthing off, reformatting then back on is a good idea. thanks
It's the same problem that happens in ARTEMIS with Micro SD cards.
I recommed you FILE Recovery Professional. It recovers over 100% of lost/corrupted data.
Then, a FAT32 card formatting.
And of course a weekly backup
I have enabled the Encryption on my PDA and then I have disable it, I couldn't save anything on my micro sd card and I hard reset my PDA. I have backed up my files and try to delete them from sd card and nothing happened. I have connected the micro sd through a card reader on my PC and I tried to format it and I get a message that cannot perform format. I have deleted the files manually from PC and when I connect the card back to device I can see all files on the card as was before.
Can anyone help me format the sd card and use it again from the beginning?
The encryption in WM6 really sucks. It encrypts the files and makes .menc files of them. The problem is that there is no option to store the encryption key, so the files are only usable on the phone that encrypted them. If you want to view the files on another phone or a pc you can't. the same if you put another rom on your phone.
To format the card i used wm5torage and connected the phone as an removable device. Then you can format the card from your pc. There are also various maintenance programs for WM that can use to format the card.
At last there is a manufacturer from sd cards where you can download a low level format program (cant find the program anymore in my ever growing download folder, so can't be more helpfull )

yup it really does suck.... happened to me once... what i did was (which resolved the problem)... removed the check on the radio button, then added new files to the sd after the encryption is disabled. all my files are back to normal. you shouldnt have formatted your device as the encryption keys will be lost as well...
you can also try pocket mechanic to reformat your card...
hello all. I have a t-mobile wing and I am having problems with my extra storage card. I had 3 folders on there that seem to be corrupt. The folder names have changed to these weird symbols and the folders are empty. another problem is that I can not delete these folders. Through active sync or on my wing I can not delete the folders. But I am able to continue to save new files on to the storage card.
any advice on how to delete or format my storage card and start fresh?
thanks
The best thing would probably be to format your SD card using your computer. This software might help:

I haven't used it personally, and I can't remember the exact name of the SD Formatter Utility I've used in the past, but if you Google "SD Format Utility" you're bound to come across one that will work.

same problem here... hmmmm.. please htc.. do something
try a soft reset.
are you on a VF uk phone?
Got the same problem last week.
I find out the memory card got corrupted. dont know why.
XP didnt seen the card in reader at all.
Vista helped me to format the card, but i lost all my data, as i have to do full format to get the card live again.
Yes tried that. Yes on Vodafone but using laurentius26's Ultimate Rom which I believe is based on a T-Moile rom. I have been using this for some months without issue.
How do you format a memory card that can't be seen?
when you open file explorer can you see it there
or has it dissapeared from that too?
File Explorer will not open so soft reset now it opens but whole startup process now quite slow.Storage card indicated ...tap on it get inbox .mstxxx so email I guess and Temp folder containing cookies, History and temp int files. Thats my lot.
This is a common problem. Try removing the memory card, soft resetting then delete the folder "Storage Card" or "Storage Card2" if it exists. Reset again and insert memory card.
This problem occurs when the storage card is mounted on a PC (Disk Drive mode) and an application such as email tries to write to it. Windows decides the folder (as the storage card is mounted as a folder) has been deleted, so re-creates it. When the memory card is unmounted from the PC, windows has to call it something other than "Storage Card" as that name has now been allocated to a folder.
If that is not the problem, put the card into a PC and see if it recognizes it. It might say "this card is not formatted" etc. in which case you need to reformat and lose all of the data on it
the_sikko is quite correct the same thing happened to me last week. I simply re-connected to the pc and deleted the newly created 'storage card' and that resolved my problem.
I did notice a folder called Storage card earlier on now after numerous resets it's gone. I have also reset back to factory settings. Each time I reinsert the card Windows Mobile Device centre shows me the memory card (although my phone indicates no sd card loaded etc.) but when I try to access it, it disappears!
Try increasing the timeout that allows your storage card to be detected when the device is booting or coming out from suspension.
These registry edits worked for me:
[HKLM\System\StorageManager]
“PNPUnloadDelay“=dword:8196
[HKLM\System\StorageManager]
“PNPWaitIODelay“=dword:8196
Also, you may want to disable the power management on your storage card with:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\SDCARD\ClientDrivers\Class\SDMemory_Class]
“DisablePowerManagement“=dword:00000001
Hope this helps
Ok now I will have to learn wo to edit my registry
So without having to edit my registry I managed to grab the file that said Storage card but when I tried to delete (with the card still inserted) it I'm told Access is denied and I should check the card is not write -protected or currently in use. When I try to open it it simply disappears. If I try to delete it with the card removed I get Cannot delete "mxip_notify":There has been a sharing violation. The source or destination file may be in use.
Any suggestions?
Could really do with some help here cos I'm well and truelly lost in terms of what my options are.

I literally just had this issue. I have two Kingston 4GB cards and one of them simply stopped working. I wasn't able to copy anything from the mSD card to my laptop, so have simply formatted the card and now it no longer shows up in Windows Explorer (Windows 7).
Now i'm using the other card. I can tell by the way this card is responding in the HD2 that the other card became corrupt. I have just ordered two Transcend 8GB mSD cards from eBay for about £30.
I downloaded a tiny piece of software which is supposed to bypass Windows Explorer limitations and force format SD cards...but it won't work because the card just doesn't show to the laptop.
Well in the end I put the SD card into the card slot of a PC and after a very very long time I managed to format the card. All is well now.
my card got corrupted too
maybe i know the answer..
sorry for my bad english..
I've the same problem. But searching from all forums, finally i get the answer. just find n download EASEUS Data Recovery Wizard Proffessional 4.3.6 (for 5 MB). Insert the mmc in card reader, use this software to recovery all the missing file (choose Complete Recovery Option). After recovery process done, use software LLFTool (for 600kb, just doing some browsing at google) to Low Level Format the mmc (this LLFTool can recognize the mmc). After all done, Windows can recognize again the mmc at windows explorer. Just right click and choose quick format (format FAT32). Done.
Had to Hard Reset
Just to add my two pennies worth.
None of the above worked for me. In the end I had to Hard Reset. Harrumph!
