Task Manager from Home Screen? - HD2 General

According to this the task manager is missing from the default home screen of the HTC HD2.
I can't find any video on YouTube that shows the task manager...so I'm wondering if the task manager icon in the top-right actually is missing from the stock ROM (or any HTC-released ROM) of the HTC HD2.
Is this icon just turned off in the Task Manager settings by default?

HTC task manager is missing completely, you can install it from cabs floating around the forum or in the sticky from touch-x. I'm using showcase 1.01b at moment, it has some bugs sometimes slow to load but it's the best ive found so far.

I'm kinda confused. Where is it burried? What page that has all your other files?
It's not on the main Start page? Where do you have to navigate to get to it? Start>Media>Youtube. Help me out. Mebe get a screen shot of where you want it.
Well that is interesting... I do not have a media folder to select after i hit the start tab. The way i found it before was file explorer > windows > youtube

Sorry, I wasn't saying u have a media folder or should have one. Different Roms from Carriers and cooks have different folders. Be sure to check all folder in the start menue.
Since you found the youtube app here is how to get it on the start page. Very easy.
-In file explorer go to where the app is.
-long press on the app and copy it
-Now go to Windows>Start Menu>Programs
-when u get there press menu.
-scroll to edit and select paste
-close file explorer.
-hit start and enjoy
You can also creat new folders and nake ur own nedia folder and put all ur media apps there. just cut and paste instead of copy and paste.

Where is the HTC Task Manager on HD2

Can only find an old one without options.
its in the settings tab under "other"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=581815
I can find the task manager but cant find the file explorer..I used clean temp to remove all dead shortcuts but it got rid of the file explorer shortcut too. does anyone know where the main file is located, I tried doing a search but nothing came up..
Is it not in the 'Start' (or Windows hardware button) menu?
no, but oh well cuz I decided to download another file explorer which claims to have more function it's called fexploreext.CAB, check it out.

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'
