Oops. Can anyone help please.
After installing opera 9.5 beta, I realised that it hijacked html files and stopped PIE from loading them. Since I couldnt uninstall the opera, I removed the files and registry entries.
But no matter what I try to do, PIE wont load html files I have stored.
It connects to the web without trouble
Does anyone know how to fix this, or have I messed up.
Thanks
Option 1: Hard Reset
Option 2: Use Total Commander and long click on an HTML file to get Properties, then navigate to the associate tab
Other Options: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=252799
I tried the associate using tc and resco but it makes no difference.
Is there a way to re-install just the pie?

not trying to be smart, but i believe a hard-reset is the only way to reinstall PIE.
What a pain.
If it helps anyone out there, IEP looks like its in an infinite loop when trying to load a local html file.

I had same Problem. It has been resolved
In registry I changed the file association for "html" exactly as follows: iexplorer.exe file:%1

Hi Everybody,
Today I have simply tried to have a look at my recent photo's but apparently the standard picture viewer doesn't start up. How can this be screwed up, it sits in the ROM, isn't it ? Maybe it has an INI or other config. file which is corrupted/missing ?? I was trying to search the forum for such a problem, but nothing found...
Please give me a hint if you can.
This is ONLY a hint because I have a Wizard...O2 XDA Mini S...and my Pics and Videos viewer stopped working. I eventually discovered it was because I'd installed the Eten dialer on my phone.
Don't know how this may help but hope it gives some clue.
iainmann,
Thanks for the hint but unfortunately it is not my case.. Other idea anyone ?
Good if you could list out the recent installed software

If youre tapping on the program icon and its not starting then try searching for the actual program (Normally in \windows), and try launching that way.
If youre tapping on a picture and its not starting then have a search on the web for some kind of file association program - perhaps the photo file extension has become dis-associated from the picture viewer.

Hard reset?
Start "Explorer", go to "/windows" and find "pimg" file. Try to start it. If it won't run, then you got virus (or bug

first of all: thanks for all the replies, just to summarize what I did already:
1. I have tried to launch the "pimg.exe" directly - the same thing (nothing) happens.
2. Hard reset - no way ! The problem is not the kind where I would consider a hard reset. I have installed a free picture viewer for the time beeing.
3. I have the "jpg" files associated with "pimg" in Resco explorer, but it didn't make any difference.
If somebody would still come up with a new idea, I would really appreciate :? .
If the program won't start I would check that the program hasn't been overwritten. With Resco make sure that it has a tick in the "In ROM" box in Properties. If not, delete it and the ROM version will be restored.
With File Associations you have two registry keys for each filetype.
HKCR\.jpg - pointing the extension to the filetype and handler
HKCR\jpegimage - telling the OS which icon and program to use for the file.
Other entries exist too like HKCR\.jpeg, for the same file with different extension, and HKCR\jpegfile which is empty on my device.
The HKCR\jpegimage\Shell\Open\Command on mine is (Default) = pimage.exe "%1"
Is yours any different?
Resco has a built in viewer for images and other file types, which you can set as the default action when you click a file.
Hope this helps.
PReDiTor,
Thanks for the hints, I went through the points but nothing suspicious found. I have set now Resco's internal viewer as photo viewer, so I will leave the proble for now. Let's see further after the next hard reset.... :wink:
its a dll file that is screwing up..
search up the thread on saman's wm5 new menu and there is a dll switcher there..
I removed minimo from my vario2 after finding it very sluggish. when installed it asked if I wanted to set it as default browser and I said yes. now if I click on a hyperlink in an email IE won't open it because of a security error. something about trusted. any ideas how I can get it back as I do not seem to have any sort of registry editor. had a look at all the ie settings I can find, but no joy. if I need to install one can I download one as a cab file as active sync messed my pc up! cheers in advance you ever helpful souls!

Please follow my articles: this is a very common problem under WM5 I've often elaborated on (e.g. at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/in..._the_flaky_file_associat&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 ) . It's in no way a security error: the system just doesn't find the target app.
You only need to restore the file extension assignments with for example http://www.winmobiletech.com/sekalaiset/RevertOperaAssignments.reg
Super, that looks like the exact problem. I have been looking for a registry editor that I can download as a direct cab file, I still have not found one; have you any links?
Thanks very much so far
enjoy folks

I can copy 2 of the files, but I can't overwrite or delete the original Opera 9.exe in the Windows folder. I've tried using Total Commader and ActiveSync file manager - and neither lets me delete or overwrite the old Opera 9 file. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Petrov.
according to the article, the performance is poor and the keyboard keeps popping up everytime you locate flash content on a page. Could be tricky for some to install and then it has to be re-installed everytime the phone is reset.
who needs the hassle ?
okay i tried it and it doesnt work really well. but i forgot to do a backup. can anyone give me a link for the original touch hd opera build which works fine?
thanks a lot
It works but very slow so you cannnot really use it. Finally my Opera crashes with the message "A problem has occured with Opera9.exe. Please tell Microsoft ..." I had to do a soft reset once ...

All I did when I tried a beta was remove the new install with "remove programmes" via the start button and the default browser reappeared.
I installed the Flash Player and, even though I couldn't copy the new Opera 9.exe across (I did copy the other two files across successfully), Opera now plays the Youtube video through Opera. However, the video is a slide show even once it's fully loaded - so it's not really usable.
This may be because I couldn't copy the new Opera 9.exe across to the /windows folder...

Hi. I have few problems.
1. I don't know why I cant install any programs. I downloaded the programs and then moved to my phone storage sd, and then when I run setup file, it opens Opera Mobile, and then that's it, nothing happens. Any idea???
2. My SMS received time is always 4 hours behind. But sent time is correct. I've tried changing regional settings but no use.
3. Is there any way to change file views to Thumbnail view. I moved picture files to Storage SD, but files are not in Thumbnail view.
any help would be appreciated. Thanks alot.
2. i think it has something to do with syncing on your computer...do a search for further info

If you download .cab installer, you don't need to extract file from .cab with winrar!
Just copy .cab on your phone memory and launch installation on your phone (double click on the .cab file in the phone file explorer)

1. What are you installing? Whats the extension .exe or .cab? Im not aware of any .exe installing from PPC, yet.
2. Might sync time with pc using ms activesync to see if that solves problem...
3. No way to change that, again as that I know of. If you want to look at pictures, maybe try to get HTC Album. Just do search....

I had this problem before. This should help http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31402
I used Total Commander for a registry editor.
I have lost the ability to open opera mini 5 with all my bookmarks saved - Out of the blue I get a error saying "The file opera mini 5wm armv4 cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found....."
I can still access all the files the program contains on the computer as well as on the phone itself. Its only when I click on the icon to start opera do I get this message. I am sure that the bookmarks are contained in one of those files so even if I had to copy it and past it into a new copy of the program. I just don't know where to find them and how to do it.
I have grown used to just copying the folder from my computer with Opera mini instead of reinstalling the cab each time I did a hard reset. I realized I could just copy and past the shortcut and opera mini would be back like always with all my bookmarks etc. I never bothered to use opera link to save my bookmarks.
I tried a hard reset, tried recopying the file from my computer, and even tried to load it on a different touch pro 2 that I have lying around. I still get the same message. I have seen some posts about not this particularly but generally about this errror message. The solutions seemed complicated involving editing certain codes and seemed a little beyond my reach (though if that is my only choice I will try) Has anyone had this issue and can anyone help me. I have bookmarks that go back a while and it would be a shame to have to start all over.
Thanks
Steve

I guess you installed it on memory card, and that's how you tried to run it on the other device... If you have modified Opera Mini executable (OperaMini5-WM-armv4.exe), as you obviously did, it won't be able to run anymore until you reinstall it. Go to m.opera.com, download and install.
Nothing too complicated, just uninstall original one and delete all it's files before installing it again.

I appreciate the attempt to help but thats not the problem it has to do with a certificate. I can reinstall off the cab but I wont have my bookmarks though I will give that a try.
thanks
