At present, you can't select multiple items in file explorer. I don't know if there is a modification floating about that will let you select multiple items.
Actually you can select multiple files. Using the standard microsoft keyboard, press the CTRL key, then you can highlight as many files as you like.
how do i get the standard microsoft keyboard?
There should be one attached to your PC.

Anyone know how I could do this?
I think you can try to find a program called Advanced Configuration Tool. It has a menu to change file associations of windows mobile.
I tried it but it didn't seem to change anything (tried to change ".txt"associated program from mobile Office to Notes, but it still opened it with Office)
I would also recommend to try Resco Explorer, which is an alternative file browser. It has an "Open with..." option when you right-click on a file you want to open.
GSFinder also allows you to change file associations. A great file browser, and free too!

am i missing something?
a) open core player - press open buton (the little one like a triangle) - go to location of your avi file - select avi file - press ok
for me it works with no problem
b) open core player - menu - tools - preferences - select page - file association - check video files box
c) open resco explorer - go to your avi file location - select your file by long pressing it - on the pop up menu select "open with" - check "always use this program..." box - select core player - press done
b) and c) should work even when you open your file from file explorer or resco explorer, etc.
good luck
How to select more than 1 file in file exprorer?
I have never had problems on my previous windows mobile phone, but with HD2 I am too stupid to figure it out how to make selection of multuple files...
No it's not just you. You can select multiple files as long as there is no scrolling in the window. As for selecting if you need to scroll i dont know. You can use total commander as this has a Ctrl key option so you can pick multiple files
You can select multiple files with the windows explorer using the SWYPE keyboard.
Click the SYM button three times
Use the UP and DOWN arrows to navigate to the files you want
Press the Select Text button
Use the UP and DOWN arrows to select multiple files
Only problem is that the files have to be next to each other.
its easy with resco explorer :/ maybe go try that one?^^ amazing explorer anyway
Hi,
How can I change the "Click" setting...? I want to double click a file to be executed and not from the first click. I'm unable to select for example a MP3 file to copy/paste it etc... because it will start playing or if a cab file, it will run.
Any idea how to chnage this...?

you can tap and hold for 2sec and all the options will pop up.
You can also try a different file explorer like Resco which lets you select files very easily.

I am trying to add the AudioManager_Eng.exe file to speed up the music boot process. I have been looking and cannot find the windows/startup folder. I included a print screen of what i see.

You need to set your pc to show hidden files. Go to control panel and in folder options under view you can set to show hidden files
you also need to show protected operating system files, not just hidden files.
From the window in your screenshot, press alt and when the menus come up at the top, click tools - folder options - view tab - scroll down, select show hidden files and folders
scroll down a little more, untick hide protected operating system files.
Whilst you're there, make sure 'hide file extensions for known file types is UNticked.
Oh okay thanks guys. I selected the show hidden files option and still didnt see the folder. Now i will try Sams' suggestion and hopefully it works.
Thanks again your guys have been a big help to me thus far!

What are you using to copy and paste??
You should use file explorer or one of the 3rd party file tools to copy and "Paste Shortcut"
You browse your device to the program directory and copy and the browse to /windows/Start Menu/Programs and either past it there or into the folder of your choice under that ...
You can also do a cut and paste if you just want to move an existing shortcut ..
and just to be sure , we are talking about the "start menu" what you get when you hit the windows key?
Hi,when i hit the window key,i get a list of all the program installed such market place,you tube,email,messenger...
I would like to have igo and solitaire there as well.
on my pc i can't see the folder windows for the htc,so i directly copy and paste from the phone and it doesn't work.

You have to do it ON the phone, and paste shortcut not just paste ...
also if you cannot see the windows folder on your pc, you need to select activesync as your connection type, your phone will show up in your Computer, if your phone is not asking you what type of connection when you plug it in you go to
Settings>connections>USB to PC, and check the bottom box that says "Ask me ......"
It is no different than creating shortcuts on your pc, but it has to be done ON the phone with file explorer or the like ....
I do it alot so I know these steps do work ...

as said above, you should be doing this on the phone, not the pc.
start - file manager - menu - show all files - browse to windows - find solitaire.exe - press and hold - choose 'copy' - scroll back up and click the folder start menu - press and hold blank area of screen - choose 'paste shortcut'
press home hard key, find a blank quicklink, press it, now you should see your shortcut available.
As for why you cant see your windows folder on the PC, , , open up file manager on the PC, browse to your phone - click tools - folder options - change to 'view' tab - scroll down the list and TICK 'show hidden files and folders' and UNTICK 'hide protected operating system files'
