So please can anyone help or I have to do a Hard Rest which I real do not what to do.
I'm trying to unistall Phatspell 1.4.

I had the same problem. As hotfix is SKTools the best choice in my opinion, but after a hardreset was the problem gone. I'm able now to deinstall the programms cleanly.
Hi,
I recently installed 'Kick off slot machine' game on my XDA mini s and when i go to 'remove programs' it wont remove it. I've tried soft reseting.
How can i get rid of it?
Can i just go into file explorer and delete the files in its program folder?
yes but u would be better off removing the reg entries aswell allthough it wont cause harm.
tried removing using active sync , add remove programs , as sometimes that works for me where the one on the device does not work.
I have found that quite often uninstalls just don't work. For example, before I resorted to a recent hard reset, I had only a few megs of RAM available. Turns out it was because although it "appeared" that such things had been uninstalled, they had in fact not been uninstalled.
The way I do it now, and I reckon this is the only way to do it, is to go to Add/Remove programs in Activesync and uncheck the box of the app/game to be removed. This seems to work (even on apps installed by CAB or on other machines).

Ok thanks.
By the way, how do you find and delete reg entries? Which folder are they stored in?
Use SK Tools, it is the best soft for cleaning and everything
-www.s-k-tools.com
You'll need something like PHM Regedit, or I use Total Commander. I'm no expert but you'll be able to get help with registry keys etc here.
Alternatively, purchase MemMaid which (I think) removes redundant registry entries.
Oh ok, thanks very much.
Just one more quick question, if you install something, remove it, then decide you want it installed again does it just overwrite the previously created reg entries?
does it just overwrite the previously created reg entries

I was using this amazing application but after it's installation i was unable to uninstall any program from "Add/Remove Programs". Not even S-K Tools. The only solution was a hard reset. Do you have anything on mind for this issue?
P.S: The version i was using: 2.2.10
Yes, developer knows about this, he said, new version fixed.
I have ver.2.3.15.6 and tested, good things, Backup is working in WM5.

Hi, was wondering does it backup contacts and have you tried restoring after hard reset?
Yes, I did. The only one problem, SK Tools made funny records about
installed software, so in the list, You have only what was installed after
You installed SK Tools. I think it was already fixed, but didn't test it.
thanks fresh123breeze,
think i'll go for it. its not a lot to pay for what it claims it can do.
I installed some programs such as HTC Keyboard or SPB Mobile Shell for example, some inside the internal flash, some inside the SDcard in WM-6.1/Qualcomm-7225.
But I don't see them all in Start/Settings/System/Remove Programs or Managed Programs.
If I want to remove one of the programs (to install a newer version), how do I do that ?
Does anybody know ?

This is not normal. SpbMobileShell enlists itself in RemovePrograms. I've just checked it. There must be something wrong with the installation.
What programs are listed in RemovePrograms?
Ok Thanks.
I reinstall and it's there.

Why would you want to remove it? Granted, moving files around is simply a case of kicking in to Disk Drive mode but (in my experience) if you're gonna use apps such as SPB, you're gonna need Activesync on both device and PC.
dont remove it >.< loOl
hi again friends, so please tell me why in the application menager i can see that the sofware open's automaticlly?
before i install the software in the pc i didnt have this problem
thanks for your help
yeahh i also want to know this, because its always opening by itself and causing phone lag
Don't know how to uninstall it, but if you open Activesync/Menu/Options, you can delete the sync sources, which should stop it from trying to sync automatically.
