Hello.
I have a problem with the installation of software on my x1.
No matter how I try CAB is always only the message "installation of xxxxx.cab failed"
However, space is enough available.
I have tried to download cab from the web, moved it via USB-cable or downloaded an email-attachment. Fails everytime, same for storage-card or memory.
This issue appears since 2 days, don`t know what has changed
I run the latest official ROM and Radio for WM6.1
thanks
Raggi
it is a bug
on third-fourth try cabs can be installed
I have tried it now 15 times and couldnt install the .cabs
one thing is interesting: If want to copy/paste the cab to a different folder, this error pops up: "Cannot copy, access denied. Please make sure that destination is not write-protected, file is not used and that there is enough memory" (my translation into English)
If I create a new folder and want to rename it later, I get the same error
try to format sd card
issue is solved by doing a hard reset
If you'd given of chance I could have saved you the time of reseting. See this post I just submitted for someone else.

tried to install resco audio recorder...
it had asked me to put PITools.dll into the windows directory.
I uninstalled the program now there is an erorr message EVERY time i reload.. saying how it cannot find the file or so..
I even tried to replace the file however windows seems to be looking for it still?
is there anything any1 can think of to help get rid of this error msg.
I tried looking in registry edit ( for the dll... but there is no reference to it)
I'm a complete newbie to this!
many thanks!
My first guess is something in your StartUp folder is still there and trying to run.
How did you uninstall it? This frequently happens if you uninstall it manually. You could always try reinstalling and uninstalling using the Remove Programs applet.
You say it told you to put that dll in the Windows directory...what told you? Were there written instructions that told you to do that manually?
And lastly, what is the "file or so..." message....specifically.
I have had many pocket PC's and the Universal w/WM5 is the only one that gives me consistant installation problems. I had listpro 3.0 installed in program memory. I uninstalled it with the intent of re-installing it on the SD card. Unchecking it from activesync did nothing. Removing from the ppc directly told me that all of the file were not removed. I saw the the folder still existed in program files, do I deleted the directory and shortcuts pointing to it. I have had this exact same problem MANY times
Am I the only one with this problem? I don't find any messages like this.
Next, I try to reinstall listpro and it won't reinstall :x I get a message cannot be installed, try another location (which does not work). Do I need a hard reset? I tryed installing another program and I can still install other stuff, but the removal did not work again.

Hi Gary!
I have a lot of experience in this sh*t. WM5 cannot uninstall or install in a lot of cases. Usually if you still have some files or folders which are on the same location than with the installation, installer says: cannot install. In that case you have to delete (or rename) the folder left, and then you can install it. In other cases installer stays in a loop install condition, and cannot continue. In that case try to install another application to finish somelooped order. I realised another thing, which is very interesting: when you want to uninstall a program, and your pda says it cannot be removed - or something -, if I run Vijay555 killphone application in 98% of the cases after it I can uninstall the same.
I hope this wil help!
Hi,
Perhaps I have been lucky but I havent had any issues with regards to installing or uninstalling programs.
I do make sure that I soft reset before and after - so maybe thats a golden rule!
Matt
Yes, softreset would be a good tip in more cases, but it wouldn't solve the problem when you want to install a program which needs a place what exists.
I did find some files in the windows directory and deleted them. That WORKED. Just doing program files is not enough. In this case, the file name was the same as the program. I don't expect to be that lucky all the time.
I have done soft-resets when it does not work. I do a number of trial programs and tend to forget prior to removal. What a apin
Got to love Microsoft - reboot is the answer to everything.
Installation problems.....
I am having the same problem too.
Even after a hard reset when I try and install Sprite Backup & Agenda Fusion I keep getting the install error: 'cannot be installed, try another location'
It's driving me up the wall! I would have thought after a hard reset this wouldn't be an issue. I'm now the proud owner of an MDA Pro (Universal) that I can't use because the software I want to install won't install.
Can anyone help me please?
Hi,
I have this problem, whenever I try to install any softwares into my jasjar, the jas jar responds, it will ask me if I want to install it on my device or storage card. then I already tried to click on either my device or storage card, but the same message always appear "name of the software cannot be intalled. to try install again to a different location, choose a location:
Device
Storage Card
then, I choose either one again, but this message appear again and again.
I do not understand what happen, because before there is no problem at all.
Can anybody please give me suggestions. Thanks. I appreciate your helps
Have you installed the program once before? Then uninstalled it? Is it an upgrade?
Or is this a completely fresh install ?
Hi guys.
I have a really annoying problem. Every time i download and put an android ROM on my SD card and try to open any file (e.g. clrcad) the following message appears:
"The file 'clrcad' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."
This message also appears when i click Haret. This is the case for any SD ROM i try to install!
i also tried a NAND install, put since i have SPL3.03, apparently i must downgrade that first. When i try downgrading SPL (so i can put on HSPL) with the appropriate files, there is always an error preventing me to do so.
I no longer want a NAND install. just the SD one. Can someone please help me with the problem above. its very annoying!.
Thank You.
this is obviously a question for the windows section, but I'll help you:
all you hace to do is allow unsigned apps to run, it can be easily done by installing BSB tweaks and clicking once on the "policies" this will allow unsigned apps to run..
and you should do some search in the windows section next time.
once i met this problem, after i hard-resetted winmo everything had been solved. you can give a try.
Today I tried the SD install of ICS as described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1437463 Used brand new 16GB card, created \\ICS folder, copied contents of the 7Z file; In WinMo File Manager, opened CLRCAD, then HARET - after a green HTC logo, restart to WinMo, tried several times to no avail. OK, just a testing, can try later...
Then I changed the SD card, inserted my original card used with WinMo and restarted WM.
BIG PROBLEM - I'm getting error message whenever running a program now, error msg reads "The file 'some file' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."
Searched the forum, found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392087. I have no reg editor installed, tried to install Total Commander but received "Installation ...was unsuccessfull".
What is the reason for this problem? How can I sort it out?
Thanks in advance
Have you an ActiveSync on your desktop PC? Try to use some registry editor that working via ActiveSync. For example "Remote Registry Editor", or look at that post. There is a link to such program.

Thanks. Downloadad/installed the CAregeditor on PC, opened registry of my HD2. I cannot change the value, getting "Write error-access denied/Cannot write value data". Any ideas?
Just 2 ideas:
1. "Connect to Device in CeRegEditor -> Tools -> Unlock Registry" (from this post). Or...
2. Hard-Reset
PS:
Some time ago I've used Android from SD, and got exactly the same thing... This caused me to reflash the ROM, but I've changed "0000101a" to "1" right after reflasing (this helped me to forget this problem).
Tried to unlock,still can't change the value. Also tried the other program recommended in the post but no - I cannot install it on HD2 - still the same problem :-(
Hard reset & ROM reflash probably the only way now, what a waste of time with reinstall/config of all the software/tools...
Anyway, thanks for your effort.
