WM5 copy/move files

I am trying to copy or move a file from \windows which is a .dll file. I am getting an error when trying to do this programatically in C# with .NET. Does anyone know how to access the files in \Windows directory without access restrictions?
Thanks,
heimlich
if they are in the rom one cant just delete or in some cases access them runtime only at pre flashing rom image time
Could you be a bit more detailed? I want to get access to a .dll to see what their function calls are. How can I get the dll onto my desktop to view it?
Thanks,
heimlich
try copying them to your sd card using total commander
I tried that. I get an error telling me it is unable to copy files. Looks similar to error I get when I tried with native file explorer and .net File.Copy();
Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,

If it is in ROM, you can't copy it right out as a file, the best you can do is to LoadLibraryEx it with LOAD_LIBRARY_AS_DATAFILE, then if you can locate it in memory, you can dump it out to a file on disk.
How do I know if something is in ROM? I know it is in \windows and that is about it and in file explorer I can see the file as .dll.
thanks,
heimlich
One way is to use GSFinder. It marks ROM files with a different icon. Most of the files that are in the \Windows folder are in ROM.

Impossible to write in windows folder

Hi,
I want to replace the file redial.exe in the windows folder of my blackstone.
Then I get an error like "access denied".
I have seen that the attributes of the file is read-only, so I have tried to changed it wiht GSFinder but I can't. Another error message says "these attributes cannot be changed".
Maybe it's because it's written "Application (in ROM)" ? But I see several examples in the forums where people replace some files in Windows folder. So I wonder how they can ?!
Any idea ?
Thanks
Try using Resco File Explorer to do the job. It replaces Windows files with ease.

Copying a file that is in ROM on Ozone

I want to use an icon that is part of an .exe file on my Ozone.
The file is part of the ROM and I cannot copy it (tried from the device itself to SD card and tried using ActiveStink to desktop).
I need to get the .exe file on my desktop so I can extract the icons.
Is there a way to do this.
All I get is "Access Denied"?

manila files on the verizon touch pro 2

Can someone explain how to get the manila files off the verizon touch pro 2? I cant see the windows folder from my computer when the phone is connected. Is their another way to see the windows folder containing the manila files so I can back them up and modify them? Thanks in advance.
I use Resco Explorer to locate all files containing the word "manila" in the filename under the Windows directory. Then I copy and paste them over to my SD card. Then just connect to PC to extract them from SD card.
cfc_gui will pull them from your device with no need to copy/paste. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2798441#post2798441
