I'm just wondering if there is a possibility to create shortcuts in the Programs-Tab of TF3D of applications that are not installed but just run by clicking the .exe-file in the file explorer.
Like it is with GPong2D.
Does anyone know?
yep, just use a good file explorer like total commander (the stock file exploer may work). go to where you have the .exe storied and copy it. then go to windows/start menu/programs and just paste the .exe there. you can now launch it from the programs list. and when you use tf3d to add a program to the launcher it should show up. hope this helps

hi,
I am having problem deleting an icon from the promgrams section of o2 XDA2.
I downloaded one program and later deleted the program through romeove program. The actual program has been deleted but has left behind an icon on the programs list. I cannot figure out a way how to delete it. Can anyone help

Deleting items in program list
Look in "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs" - they are all there.
use explore or what ever file browsing tool that you use to get your kicks
go into the dir called windows
go into the dir called start menu
go into the dir called programs or something like that
it's just like on a pc
Use File Explorer. Go to \Windows then \Start Menu. Open \Programs and do whatever you want.
run a program when the phone first starts up?
To be as short as you with your question:
WINDOWS > AUTOSTART
add shortcut or executable
well let me b a little more long winded so i can get a more specific answer...i want to take a program and automatically have it run whenever i turn on the phone...which would in-tern..make my life much easier...what would be the way for me to do such a thing...thank you in advance...i would appreeciate it
Yep, my answer is still the same:
Add a shortcut of that particular program to the WINDOWS AutoStart folder. You might have a shortcut for the program you want to run at startup in your START MENU ??? Open FILE EXPLORER (or similar applications), navigate to: C:\Windows\Start Menu\Programs and copy the shortcut. Now navigate to C:\Windows\AutoStart and paste the shortcut there.

I'm confused. On my Apache, you place a shortcut to the program you want to run in "\Windows\Startup" I use Total Commander to make the shortcut, but there are other ways. Isn't the MDA the same?
It depends on your ROM version too!
If you do not have an AUTOSTART folder but a STARTUP folder then you have to put it in there! On my MDA it is called AUTOSTART
I have an exe that I found that I would like to add to my programs list. Is there a quick way to do this?
I can run it from file manager, but would like it to show up on the start menu or in list of programs
What you need to do is copy the file into
my device / windows / start menu / programs. Then paste it as a shortcut.
Hope this helps.
the in built file explorer wont let u do that. try total commander
When i right-click (hold the finger to the file) i get the following menu where you can see : Send shortcut to programs. It becaomes available in programs then.
Create a shortcut to the exe file using your file explorer and place shortcut in /windows/start menu/programs.
Thanks for everyone's help! I got it to work.
Glad you got it sorted.
Solution found, thread closed
Hiii,
Is it possible to remove icons from the start menu?? And is it possible to copy an exe file (or other sort of file) to your start menu?? Because I have installed a program but it won't open from the Start menu, only when I go through explorer and then open the exe file it works.
Using a file explorer navigate to /Windows/Start Menu/Programs and delete the .lnk shortcuts you want to remove. Similarly copy and 'paste shortcut' anything you want to appear in the start menu. Don't place .exe files here, only .lnk shortcuts.
ok thanks!
I installed a program in the storage card, but nowhere I can find the program icon. So everytime I have to open file explorer to run the exe file. How to make a quick link so it can be shown in the quick link tabs? When I tried to add, it's not listed in the programs to choose.
Also, when I install games, the shortcuts either be under start UI or under start\games. I want to move the games shortcuts in start to start/games, how can I do it?
Thanks.
Just copy the .exe (using explorer) and paste a shortcut to Windows/Start Menu/Programs for your apps or Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Games for your games.
