You need an MS-DOS image to launch that program.

Delete start menu items

Is there a way to automaticly delete these?
I tried to make a batch file, but PPC2003 doesn't recognise it and can't execute it
this is what i mean:
Code:
cd\
cd \windows\start menu\
del activesync.ink
del calender.ink
del contacts.ink
del inbox.ink
Does anyone know how to script something like this?
I think you mean .Lnk instead of .ink
You want this done after hardreset from Extended rom ?
I know there are "config.txt" commands to copy files, but don't know about Deleting.
could be .lnk
but yes, i want to do this after a hard reset
M4io,
These can easily be deleted on the desktop when connected via ActiveSync.
Simply elpore to the start items in the windows folder and delete them.
Resco File Explorer will let you do it on the PPC.
Cheers

i know that but i want it to be done automaticly because i have to configure multiple pda's and don't want to them al by hand, and also if a user forgets to charge the pda, i want them to be deleted
Oops,

thanks
but that is the "new" menu, the one on the lower left, where you can quickly make a new document, excel sheet or whatever
yes i know & this key is specifically those values but encryptred in a way, try deleting anything under newmenu key & you'll find they are all gone
well i did it, but now my "New Menu" is empty (as i suspected) and my "Start Menu" is still unchanged
But i do think there must be some registery setting somewhere because if you go to "System" > "Menus" there you can pick the programs you want to see in the "Start Menu". I think these values must be saved somewhere in the registry, but is in not in the "NewMenu"
oh **** you are talking about the start menu, oh then am sorry but i'll find out for you

You could use this freeware app that I've attached. It runs in a command prompt on your PC and allows you to run DOS commands against the activesync connected pocket pc. E.g. typing RCMD dir \Windows\*.* lists all the files in the Windows folder on your device. You can also create .bat files on your PC and run them.
I got similar problem with start menu items.
I cannot remove or add startmenu items even if i select/unselect them in Start>Setting>Menu.
(the related .LNK files already in start menu folders)
The selected item's icon won't showup in startmenu until i do soft-reset.
Usually the icon wouild show up instantly, but now it isn't like that.
anyone can help?

Thx 4 helping me, but i'm looking for something that can be run in de extended_rom after a hard reset. Imagine you have hondereds of XDA II's, which are not on the same place, if it's possible to get something like this into the Extended_Rom it would save alot of work and hassile because we (the company i work for) doesn't want an icon linking to the internet explorer for instance. If you have to do it manualy people won't delete it, so it has to be something in which they can't interfere, the extended_rom auto install after a battery drain or a hard reset
I hope someone can help me out
Wel bat2exe doesn't work either somebody else found something?
Having done some digging, it looks like you would only be able to run .BAT files if the DOS device drivers and a command interpreter were installed on the device.
I have experimented with this and have been able to write a tiny program which executes a file called test.bat. If need be I could experiment further.

How to overide \windows\ access protected files?

I know people use total commander but I have no idea how to use it. Is there an easier way? Or can someone explain to me how to use it to copy over some files to my \windows\ folder?

Just use Resco Explorer. It's not freeware but is a great application with the ability to overwrite protected files and has many settings to play with.

Select the file you want... Click file... Select Copy/Move... Click Tree to select where you want to drop the file.
I found this at this page, and it works for me about 90% of the time.
Download EnableRAPI and extract all files from the zip archive.
Double click on EnableRAPI.bat and leave the DOS window it launches open
Open Folder Options and choose to "Show hidden files and folders" and de-select the "Hide protected operating system files" option.
On Windows XP, this would be done by launching Windows Explorer and clicking on Tools --> Folder Options and then the View tab.
On Windows Vista, this would be done by going to Folder Options from the Control Panel and then clicking on the View tab.
Connect your device to your PC using ActiveSync (Windows XP) or Windows Mobile Device Center (Windows Vista).
Browse the device's file system using the File Manager tool in ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center.
When you have finished making all of your modifications, close the EnableRAPI DOS window.
I'm not sure what this actually does, though, or why it works.

I tried that, it doesn't work. I'm using a Blackjack II running WM6.1. Does anybody know why it doesn't work and how to copy files into the windows directory?

You are posting in the wrong forums. However, your question is rather generic. I find it best to use either Resco Explorer or TotalCommander (as well as ActiveSync of course).

HTC Pure TF3D Internet tab

Is there any way to change the default page from att.net? It would be nice if you could set it to a homepage of your own choice. I have opera homepage set to Yahoo mobile version, but it does not use that homepage from the TF3D tab...WTF.
Val
Have the same problem here.
no news????
No one knows how to solve the problem??
Yeah, it's easy. You have to edit the file in /Application Data/Manila/InternetPortal-en-US.xml.
Copy it to your storage card, plug in the phone to your computer with usb as storage device. Open the file, change the NavigateUrl="att.net" to NavigateUrl="what ever website you want", save it, then overwrite it back to Application Data/Manila/
Also you can do it with Total Commander on the phone. Find the file. Hold down on it and go to properties, uncheck Read Only and System, click ok. Click File at the bottom, click on >>>>>, click on Edit. Change the NavigateUrl= (same as above), click ok (upper right corner). Hold down on the file, click Properties, check Read Only and System, click ok
That's it!

Hi. I have a WWE ROM there are additional files "InternetPortal.xml" in the Windows directory for different languages. So check there for your language. If there is no InternetPortal-it-IT.xml file, just create one. I think this will work.

Unhide system files

How can I unhide system files in HD2?

In File Explorer, click "Menu" and then "Show all files".

It does'nt work.
I tried to do what in "Leo Hints & Tips" for exp:
"1. Enable Hidden Default Games
Go to the Windows directory and copy bubblebreaker.exe and solitaire.exe to the games folder as shortcuts in Windows\Start Menu. Make sure to unhide system files to see the games listed."
I can't copy files as instructed (working with total commander) and if the files were copied I can't reach/see them.
I think you may have misunderstood the original instructions.
Open file manager (not total commander) and navigate to Windows folder.
Locate the file BubbleBreaker (it's 46K, not one of the others)
Highlight it and keep it pressed till you get the menu with "Copy" in it. Do Copy.
Scroll back to the top and go into "Start Menu\Programs\Games".
Do "Menu, Edit, Paste Shortcut".
As I'm a pedant, I renamed the shortcut, removing the "Shortcut to" prefix.
Then, when you go Start Menu & then Games, BubbleBreaker is in there.
Now I've just done that exactly as typed above, whilst describing it for you, so it should work for you.
Let us know if you still have a problem.
Hi,
It works!
Now I got the idea.
Thanks.

Don't know what to say mate - it's in my Windows folder. There's a bunch of files called eT9.Rhodium.xxxx and then eT9MyWords is after them (directly after eT9DeadKeys).
I take it you did unhide system files as previously suggested? (I'm not sure if you need to do that for the games suggestion).
I have a slide deferent question. I would like to delet exe file from thew windows folder but I can't because I can't select Delete, have anyone some advice?
delete exe file
it has been awhile since i have done this, also some files are impossible or almost impossible to delete.
if you have been trying to do it from ur phone, go instead, to your active sync/windows mobility center. click file mgt and browse contents of device, navigate to the exe u want to delete. i have done it before and it has worked on several ocassions. be careful on what u r deleting, you may want to do a google on it b/f u do it
if this does not do it, i got no clue hope this helps someone
johncmolyneux - special thanks to u for the hidden games trick, ? are there any other hidden games in the hd2 winmo 6.5 professional, or where i may find out?

[Q] WinCE 4.2 gps device, access to windows files? (SOLVED)

Have Tevion gps device, wince 4.2, no usb port, just sd card. It have Igo8 software that loads automatically on boot. I managed to unlock device with some program and gain access to all win folders. Then, accidentally, I moved some important file from Flash Disk on internal memory and now device just boot to splash screen and nothing more. That file called Igolaunch.exe and I have it, just don't have access anymore to windows files to copy it on right place. Without that file device don't know what to do, and do nothing, just boot to splash image. The windows files, registry, are intact, just need to copy back Igolaunch.exe to it's original location. So, is there any way to gain access to win files again, like force load some explorer from sd card on boot, or something like that, just to copy back the file? Any other solution, some reset, maybe? Thanks.
Try this: http://www.austech.info/gps/84958-gps-ce-6-0-rescue-disk.html
Note: You must register with Austech to see the download link.
YESSS! Success!
Thank you very much! This is just that I needed! Followed instructions and boot in explorer (desktop), copy-back the igolaunch.exe to it's original location and everything working again! Thanks again!

First you wrote that you need help to get access to win files and folders, that software enable you to do that.
If you want to change appearance and gps software that device is using, you need to unlock device. There is a lot of tutorials how to do that, just google it. For example, you can try this:
