Recently I installed an executable file and it didn't install properly . Everytime I restart my phone I found an error message which says "xxxxx.exe couldn't start...". I tried uninstalling the application, but nothing happens, the message still appears.
How can I disable the service or something to look for this file? It is not in the startup folder. I tried with MemAid cleaning the bad uninstalls, but still nothing. I look for this exe in the registry, and it doesn't appear...
I guess some service is trying to load this exe, how can I find it?
Thankx.

Hello.
I have installed the IIWPO (theft protection) program manually (not in ROM) for testing purposes. After uninstall an error message appeared periodicaly. The error txt is "Cannot execute \windows\IIWPO_main.exe". Also I can not find any reference to this file in the registry (maybe faulty registry editor, PHM ?) or in the startup folder. Also tried searching in the file contents on entire device. No success. Please, help, this error message is pissing me off
might be late, but...
I had the same problem. It seems that the IIWPO_startup.exe writes an additional string somewhere (*.dll?) which forces the program to start. Btw. this means that it is not necessary to put it into the AutoStart directory, it should be enough to open it just one time after the installation.
Until someone finds the destination of this string there is a simple work around: just put a program file you always like to execute at startup (e.g. ClearTemp.exe) into your windows directory and rename it to IIWPO_main.exe. This will help :wink:
p.s. hexediting of the startup and main.exe does not solve the above mentioned problem but gives your iiwpo files and registry settings the desired personal touch to remain undiscovered
I uninstall my IIWPO easily. All you need is to reverse all the steps you followed during installation.
Remember to delete the line from config file in extended rom followed by a hard reset
Of course a HARD RESET will also solve the problem :lol:
I'm having this same problem....any solution yet??????
The reason for this is in the windows registry there is still a link to the program causing it to start. Use a program such as memaid which will find all dead links and delete them i had a problem similar to this with another program. Memaid solved it for me, hope it works for you also

Thanks for the advice.........
unfortunately.............I tried memaid...........but it didn't solve the problem.....
anyone else?
Registry key location would be somewhere like HKLM to startup applications. Hard reset will definitely solve your problem.

MDApro:
I am trying to replace a Dll file that is in ROM in the \windows dir with a Dll file from my own with the same name.
Then my Dll loads all functions from a copy of the original Dll file. After a soft reset my Dll file gets active and the ROM file is blended out.
So far so good, this works well..... until WM5. Here after a soft reset the device is dead. Hanging in boot screen. Nothing happens.
A hard reset is necessary and the device is alive again.
I have a test app which simulates the Dll load order and it works ok with a Dll file with another name.
When I started test app a notification appears on the device which says that the file xyz.dll is from unknown publisher, trust it or not...
So could it be that it has something to do with signing the dll file? Or does the boot loader (or some one else)
check that all files have the correct checksum or version?
Has anybody information about that? Thanks!
I've replaced DLL files with no problem after soft resets. Did you disable signature security settings?
http://www.beyondthetech.com/downloads/phone/Cert_SPCS.CAB
Taken from the HTC Apache. Disables the security so you can used unsigned files.
Wow how quick!
I have read today about signature security settings and that it is possible to change the settings.
Have tried to disable the signature security today but I think I have done somthing wrong.
Will try again tomorrow with your app and I hope it will work then. Have spend so much time on this the last weeks...
Which file have you replaced?
Have tried it with your Cert_SPCS.CAB. But with no success. After replacing the file and soft reset the device was dead again.
How can I check what security settings are currently set and active on the MDApro device?

Click to collapse
i dont think you installed it.... if your getting that message that means you only have the omapclock startup link on your phone. Everytime you turn on your phone windows will try to run the link in the windows startup folder but theres no actual .exe file linked to the file so it can't run it. Understand?
i use omapclock on my phone too. in my windows startup folder i have omapclock.ink and its link with omapclock.exe which i put in \windows
and i also have omapclockPlus in the start menu folder so i can control the speed of the processor.
hope that helps
I installed the latest verson. And it would not let me register it. So i deleted it. It never installed into my program files or startup file. Is their in easy way to install this? How do i do it now since its still some where on my phone? Can i just drag the OmapClockPlus_20060803_004.zip into my phone? Do i need to unzip it before i send it to my phone? Do i need to change any of the file names after i run the exe. file. Sorry I must sound really dumb asking all this
Hello.
I have a problem with my device, looked at all relevant threads with no success and am hoping someone will be able to help me out.
My device is running all my programs as normal and everything is fine. I want to uninstall some programs I no longer need, but it fails. I tried reinstalling the cab over the installation to see if that helps, but that fails also.
I then thought about just deleting the program's folder and its contents using the standard file explorer. I get an error message saying "cannot remove X: access is denied......be certain the folder is not write protected and not in use"
This message appears on anything I want to do like copy/paste my personal files, notes. I cant rename anything either.
Is there a registry entry to fix this? I'm afraid of a hard reset not solving the problem and then having no registry editor and not being able to install anything on the device.
I hope I have made sense in my post. If you can offer any help,thanks.
