I see no sollution to edit the contacts on my pc? How can I open the file and edit?
Why don't you just sync them?
open your microsoft outlook, select contacts and edit them.

As simple as that

I figured that also out, but I don't want to install outlook.
Any other options? Are there freeware programs available?

Of all the junk that Micro$ have churned out, Outlook is actually a rather good program - I'd recommend it over anything else
You either get another sync software that will let you sync with the software you use to manage contacts on your pc, or connect to your pocketpc using something like http://www.freewareppc.com/communication/rce.shtml that will let you control the ppc from your windows desktop.
Ok, another question
i used to sync my device with outlook with the option of combine contacts between the two devices, the peoblem now is that i have a many duplicated contacts over 1500 contacts, is there any program or tip to remove this duplicates easly.
thank u in advance
I haven't tried it myself, but I found this on Google:

I just got my qtek 9100 and it came installed with pocket msn. Is there anyway I can remove this as I dont have a hotmail account and dont want the hotmail inbox. .... or is there another way of removing just the inbox.
I much prefer agile for msn anyway so dont realy need pocket msn anyway.
Any help would be appreciated.
hi buddy
try the attached file - got it from my wizard extended rom!
cheers, lutz

Its in the Windows folder and some thing like msnmsgr.exe - can't tell you for sure as I dont have it with me.
Just to finish off I placed a copy in the start menu and removed from the today screen the pocket MSN thing.
Terran
Thanks for the repsonses.
I did a hard reset and didnt start the pocket msn software, so it didnt create a hotmail inbox. I've removed it from the program icons.
The messenger software is called instmsgr.exe but if you use that it still creates the hotmail inbox.
Cheers
i too would like to know how to use msn without it making the hotmail inbox. also i'd like to get rid of the outlook email one but i could live with that staying but 2 inboxes i dont use starts to get anoying
I just use agile messenger which is free and does the same job. In fact it goes one better by including AOL, ICQ and yahoo messenger.

I simply made a shortcut in SPB Pocket Plus to a file called..... instmsrg.exe which is in the Windows folder.
To get rid of the mailbox, i guess you could hard reset, create the shortcut to instmsgr.exe then never open the Pocket MSN so the mailbox never gets made. As suggested above.

as shah said it still creates the hotmail account as soon as you sign in using the msn software. oh well guess i'll just have to use a 3rd party app for instant messaging
dean
right figured out how to remove it. go into settings / memory and stop msn and messaging. (this'll stop you having to reset)
load up a reg editor, I used resco explorer. goto HKLM/software/microsoft/inbox/svc then rename the "hotmail" key to "-hotmail" exit resco and press the power button to standby your device and save the reg changes. now if you go into messages the hotmail will be gone.
i've only just figured this out so not sure if there are any minor side effects, let me know if you notice any.
Thanks
That seems to do the trick.
Need just to decide whether to use agile or instmsgr ... The latter integrates better with the os but I think I read somewhere that it uses more data so higher gprs costs ???
I just tried this on the new rom, and it denied me access to the whole messaging package.
No Texts, nothing.
So I'm just undo-ing the change.
How can I get rid of the process called pMSNServer.exe which takes up around 300KB of my precious RAM??

Not to be contrary, but pMSNServer.exe should only be using 56kb of resident memory. I haven't seen it run since I did the following from a few posts up (though I deleted the whole key rather than renaming it):

I already deleted that key as well - I don't have the MSN Inbox in my MobileOutlook...
However, the pMSNService.exe is still running and takes up around 300KB...
which app you use to see how much space does the msn program use when running ?
thanx
I am using SKTools, but there are also many other memory managers...

Dear Lutzh,
I ran this cab on my Toshiba G900 WM6P PPC phone, to remove WLM, and it asked where to install, I chose Storage Card. Now on card I have folder Tools with a file CeSetup in it which does not have a file association. In Add/Remove programs I have nothing new that can be removed. In /windows I still have the WLM files. Did I do something wrong, what should I do next?
Thank you in advance

it's very strange. I have the same rom installed and MSN presents. Did you look for MSN Options in Start/Settings?
I've noticed the same.
I get the full "MSN" page which means an extra click to start messenger.
I used to have a shortcut direct to the Msn_Msgr program but... now it's gone
Are they that desperate for us to use their whole MSN "suite"?!
in Settings I have MSN Options dialog,
but all features are disabled, except the one: SMS
all others are disabled on every taps.

First use Pocket MSN in Start/Programs to set your account
works now
thanks for great suggestions! works!
but I get icons for Pocket MSN dialog, then I can select MSN Messenger.
I preffer icon directly to Messenger, but this is no special problem.
now, all features in MSN Settings are enabled.

make a shortcut to it.
use file manager to:
"copy" the file \windows\instmsgr.exe
and "paste shortcut" in \windows\start menu\programs
great help! thx!
Fantastic!
The last step I made the above shortcut, this is what I wanted to back.
This is why I love this forum. Sharing ideas and solution. Nowhere and noone (mean: no manufactures and no device provider) gives such good support and help.
btw: why the official ROM release which so many bugs? I found there are some old IA CallerID pictures inside the ROM with no matter to use, because this program was remove a while.
Live messenger adds all my contacts' emails to the contacts list..
is there a way to hide those like the solution of hiding sim contacts by aserg?
this is the only reason why i am so hesitant to use live messenger on my prophet!
Go to www.pocketcm.com and download the contact manager. It's a nice contact manager replacement and it have an option to hide contacts that do no have a phone number.
Or login again thrue WM Live.. ..don't complete the new account login and all WM Live contacts are removed from your list. It's not yet possible to have and WM Live Messenger and not adding them to your contact list

You have to sign on with another account on WM Live, it has nothing to do with SIM contacts.

Thanks. Good program. It hide my messenger contacts.
I upgraded from WM5 to Black a couple of weeks ago, and it's been great. I just have a couple of minor things I couldn't find answers for.
1- Is there a way to make it so the contacts on the SIM don't show up in the main contact list?
2- What's the latest version of Windows Live Messenger that doesn't force you to add your Messenger contacts to your WM6 contacts list? I installed the build 1400 included with the add-ons on the Black site, and then spent a while deleting all of them from my contacts list.
With the numerous contacts that I have to have with work already, adding the multiple numbers for each person on the SIM listing plus all of the Messenger contacts really makes the list almost unmanageable. Please help...
Latest verison is 10.6.0030.0600. Grab that and hunt through the options.
Oh, and if you've manually deleted all your contacts from the phones contact list DO NOT try to connect or open Windows Live again, or you may find that it will delete all the contacts from your MSN list too!
Thanks. Any idea where I could grab that version?
Most people build it into their ROMs... Mine has this version.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355439
Well, I really like everything else about the ROM I'm using, so I guess I'll have to look for some way to install it independently, if possible.
Anybody have any insight about the first question?
Thanks again.
Hunt around for the CAB file version... however I'm not sure where you would find that... It may be posted on the forums somewhere,...
Yeah, I have looked...and looked...and looked...
Thanks for you help. I'll keep looking.

Hi. Sad to say all the Windows Live contacts are already in my contact list. Is there anyway to delete them without MSN deleting them too when i try to connect to Windows Live again?

Start -> Programs -> Windows Live -> Menu -> Account Options -> Switch Windows Live ID.
Answer Yes and it should remove all the MSN contacts from your contact list.

One minor issue. This version of WLM keeps resetting itself to only check email manually after I set it to check each 15 minutes. Any ideas?
