Hi!
Anyone could help me out!?
I place a file "powerstatus" into the startup folder.. What I can do to remove the file inorder to prevent it from starting up. I can't delete while its running and I there is no option for me to close it when its on. ... . Only way is delete it from startup folder.. . but how to i close the file??
Pls help ..
Rename the link in startup, softreset, then delete the link in startup, delete the file as well if you dont need it.
and if you put an exe file in startup (not sure if you can do that but)
then you just remove it from program.exe to program.exe.uncle
then softreset it
unless you use the extention uncle for something else it should just fail to start and then you can delete it
I have tired to rename it, but no use. tried to cut it out, no use, tried to overwrite with a blank startup folder, no use too..
Yes, its an exe file, anyway to close program that is not reflected on "running program" ?
The "Powerstatus" is running, but I cant find a way to close it, I have tired the program which make the PDA go into safe mode, but can't work
I am using WM2005.
Any expert with any solutions?
Thanks very much in advance. .. .
Move the Startup folder to somewhere else My Documents for example and reset.
Afterwhich you can delete the file and replace the Startup folder back in Windows directory.
tried that before.. The startup folder with the "powerstatus" will still be there even thou i cut the whole thing out. Plus, cos the file is running, i cannot delete, move, overwrite it. . . so i think need a way to close it...
Anyone know how to close programs that is running in the background where it will not show on the "Running Program"?
Happens to me but use the resco file explorer to rename the files, softreset ( prompts you ''theres no application associated with ''powerstatus.exe''....), tap start(repeat until the menu drops) then open again the resco file explorer, goto windows/startup and delete the file.
EASY.... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
yeah it could be a fileexplore thing ms's filemanagers like to protect people from extentions which is why many people use reso or totalcommander
Kill the process in memory
Can't you just kill the process in memory?

What about renaming the startup folder to something else and soft reset?
Safemode
Download and install "Safemode"
Soft reset your device
Just after the device restarts, tap on the upper part of the screen: your device starts in "safemode"
Delete whatever you want from the startup folder
Soft reset, and let the device start normally (without tapping on the upper part of the screen)
After every softreset the link to the Sim Toolkit is recreated in the startmenu -> programs folder. This is really annoying as I just don't use this program. Is there any way maybe in the registry to prevent it from being created? I am using the newest official T-Mobile GER ROM but i already had this problem with the first ROM that was installed.
I have the same problem!
i want to disable the stk menu from WM5
Did anyone tell me how to do?
Ok, I got an idea. Might sound stupid and is not the most ellegant solution but it will work: Why don't we put together a little program that deletes the shortcut and we put this program in the startup folder? This way the icon won't reappear after each soft-reset.
Can anybody here do this for me? Just a simple little program to delete the file. The one which needs to be deleted is:
\\Windows\Startmenü\Programme\Special.lnk
Thank you so much!
there is no stk.lnk shortcut in my windows\startup folder
but my stk menu is automatic start! why?
Hi there,
I'm having the same problem, in that there is a link to the STK appearing in my programs folder on each reset. I have tried deleting and moving the icon, setting it to 'hidden', and altering the registry setting (\\Windows\Startmenu\Programmes\O2.lnk (it's slightly different to the example in an above post, but it does link to STK)) to place it in a sub-folder called Phone (i.e. \\Windows\Startmenu\Programmes\Phone\O2.lnk), but on each reset my changes are removed.
Has anyone got any ideas how to permanently remove this - or at least how it is being recreated each reset? Is it installed as part of the O2 Active software?
Cheers all
Rory
I've uninstalled this program call "SiriusCE" on my TyTN, but the program icon is still in the "Programs". I can't seem to remove it, when I click on that icon, it shows some error. It seems like the program did not uninstall completely. Does anyone know how to remove it manually? Thanks!
Sometimes it helps to re-install and then uninstall.
If that doesn't work, try the manufacturer's website, sometimes they have FAQ sections which will help you.
Most probably it is just the icon (this is why it gives you an error when you click on it after all, what did you expect?). Why don't you delete it manually?
mikaljan ... NLS is probably correct. Using File Browser, go to \windows\Start Menu\Programs and tap&hold on the icon until the context menu pops up. Then select Delete and confirm. That should do it.
I just got my first PDA Wednesday, HTC 8525. But this question would be more directed to anyone using Windows Mobile 5. I installed a program thats called "slide to unlock" cool little program, but i tried to erase it but everything erased but one file called Ilock.
Well when i try to erase it it give a message saying:
"Cannot delete ilock: there has been a sharing file violation
The source or destination may be in use"
Thanks in advance to whoever helps.
by the way i did a quick search and didn't find anything. So please no, "use the search button" comments.
Found the problem, it was linked to the program iphone...thank anyways
i understand how it is to be new to this so here you go-
you must always completely terminate a program for it to be completely uninstalled. this can be done in a variety of ways: first is to terminate the program through its own exit command within the program. second, if the program does not have an exit command you can manually terminate the program using 3rd party apps like memmaid and sktools. third would be to check the \windows\startup directory if the program is started upon device startup or soft reset. if the program contains a shortcut or an exe file in the windows startup folder, then manually delete this then do a soft reset.
after all these you should be able to already completely uninstall the app. in the case of iLock, it is said in the program's readme text that tapping on the iLock.exe file once runs the program then tapping it a second time closes the iLock app and shows a windows saying so.
I installed a app caled omapclocks. I installed i think. It never worked. So I tryed to delete it. Now everytime my phone goes into standby i get a notification error. I cant find any of it's files on my phone. Please help me fix this. Im new to this phone and i'm really having a hard time. All I was trying to to was overclock this thing and it seems like its more trouble then its worth. I just want to get this off my phone.
Im also getting this error: cannot execute \windows\startup\omapclock.ink

Click to expand...
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
