hi, I installed a game on my HD and the icon is in the Start menu...
how can I move it to the Game folder?? or in any other folder??
anyone help please.. thx..
open file explorer, go to windows folder<start menu<programs<games u'll find the icon of your game there, cut and paste it in any other place but under the programs folder. u can also create a new folder and put it there.

thank u all.
yanivbe: examine the icon.lnk in the games folder and then use the same technique as required.
FYI:
make a shortcut or document, eg:
1#shellres.dll,-8229

Click to collapse
Save as icon.lnk and place in each folder as required.
For more details on the .lnk syntax, search against my username for the word "completeness".

hi Guys.
i have a problem here with the herald and the quick App select in the HTC HOME.
i can only select apps that are on the programlist. But i have apps on the storage card. i want the exe files to appear in the programlist so i can select them in the quick app menü in HTC HOME.
i tried to make a shortcut from the apps exe an paste it in windows... in windows/programs but it doesnt work.
do i have to edit the registry ? i dont know what i have to add in there.
please help
You need to paste the shortcuts in windows/Start Menu/Prorgrams and whichever folder you want to drop it in or just drop it in that folder and it will work ^_^.
It worked !
THANK YOU !
How can I unhide system files in HD2?

In File Explorer, click "Menu" and then "Show all files".
That should do the trick

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?

Thanks johncmolyneux,
Got there in the end - I had shown system files, but seems like it somehow "reverted".
Cheers!
Is it possible to make a shortcut to the Games Folder (or any other folder) as a Quick Launch button on the today screen? I have several games and it would take up too many Quick Launch slots so just using one slot to the Games folder would be great.

You'll have to create the shortcut yourself using the file explorer (copy and 'paste shortcut'). Once you have the shortcut placed in the /Windows/Start Menu/Programs folder you should be able to add it to the home screen.
In case you didn't know the Games folder itself is located in /Windows/Start Menu/Programs
Thank you profahmad. I'm new to Windows Mobile so I'm still learning.
I tried your tip and now I could add the Games folder to the quick links. Unfortunately I thought it would open upp the Games folder like it looks in the Start menu. Instead Resco Eplorer opened the folder. Well well... no biggie.
Interestingly enough when I tried the same thing with another folder called "Shoutcast" on my storage card (contains pls-files to Internet Radio channels) I could add the folder to the Quicklink but I couldn't open it.
Anyway... thanks for the help
I don't think it's possible to force the Start menu itself to open a particular folder directly. You'll have to stick with the default file-explorer you have associated with the folders, in your case that would be the Resco Explorer.

That's strange, did you create a shotcut and paste it into /Windows/Programs? I just tested it with a folder on my storage card and it works perfectly. You may have copied and pasted (and not pasted a shortcut) by accident. Try it again.

Aah you're right, Start Menu can't be forced so that's the best we can do at the moment.
I have just installed the application but it does not show on start menu can some one tell me why?
Thanks.
i dont know why, but u can create an own shortcut to it.. just copy the .exe file and paste it as shortcut in windows/startmenu/programms..
btw, there is a new HDWobble now, the HD2Wobble )
Yeah thats the one i got mate, its in program files hmm wierd.
Start Menu > Programs > Games....
Normally
It is there but the shortcut is not there, I wish I knew why....
like i said...
start explorer and go to: mydevice/program files/hd2wobble
then copy the hd2Wobble.exe file and go to: mydevice/windows/start menu/programs/games and select "paste as shortcut"
there u go, now u have it in the games folder in ur start menu
