I've been the same problem! please help me!

Hi,
Is it a folder or drive that you have mapped? I'm asking 'cos you said:
'I map some folder of my laptop on my Jamin......'
You also said:
'and now I don't know how to unmap that drive...'
Assuming that you meant having mapped your folder, but are now unable to un-map it, a walk-around is to:
a. copy the contents of the mapped folder onto a newly created folder and
b. delete the original mapped folder.
This will get rid of it.
If however, you meant that you are no longer able to un-map a drive, I take it that the drive is a virtual one. The walk-around is to:
delete the virtual drive so that it no longer exists.
Personally, I can't see why WM5 is not allowing you to un-map a folder or drive. Perhaps a dig into the registry would de-mistify it BUT please be most careful as to what you do if you follow this route.

Is there a way to edit/modify a protected file in \Windows?

Hi
I'd like to edit the file Preconfig.txt in \Windows. This file is protected. Is there any way to make a file in \Windows writable?
Thank you
Jean-Yves

If I recall correctly, you can copy the file out of the windows directory to another directory and then paste it back over the top of the protected one and then you can edit it.
I may be wrong though, so sorry if I'm leading you up the garden path!

What Codenix said is true, if the file is inside the ROM.
If the file is 'protected' in terms of attributes, you can use Total Commander to disable the attribute first.

I tried removing the read-only/system attributes in Total Commander in some \Windows files on my x01ht, but every time the attributes are reseted back! How to avoid this?!?

yes i have the same problem with you~~
although i use active sync to copy the files to ppc \windows
it also block me and say protected
and i want to copy a new phcanOverbmp.dll replace the old one....
what should i do???
can some brother help~!!!

Some files are in use and cant be unprotected and written over in this manner.. the only way to do it when it fails like that is to cook your own rom... which we are still trying to do, but get closer every day
And for the phcanOverbmp.dll we have cabs in the upgrading forum for this.. read here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=287829

and why if i want to edit my start menu items from ASync it don't work?
The files are unprotected but from active sync explorer i can't delete/move it... with resco explorer there are no problems!..
Also.... it interrupt file transfers if i try to copy thumbs.db.. included in win folders :x

I had the same problem - ActiveSync seems to not have the necessary rights for these files. The methods described here solved the problem for me. Yes, the text behind the link talks about problems with registry access, but the reasons and solutions for both problems are the same.
Also.... it interrupt file transfers if i try to copy thumbs.db.. included in win folders :x

That may or may not be the same problem. I would guess thumbs.db may just be in use (i.e., opened).

where is internet explorer EXE located in WM6 ?

where is internet explorer EXE located in WM6 ? i need the exact path....thanks in advance.

It depends on the rom but it is usually in the winsows directory. Just use resco explorer and get the path that way.

That's right. You can find it at \Windows\iexplore.exe

thanks guys

Lost File Explorer

Howd'y U/D to Scapps 4.31 then did custom restore to obtain some file directories back and now I've lost the file explore feature totally cant access files dunno how to other than F/E any help is there a registry mod I can do to get it back it's not in settings I cant assign a button to it it's GONE

Install total commander. do a search on the forum for the cab file, better free file explorer. I like Resco 2007 best , but its a commercial product.

The Problem is, i have to delete this file, otherwise i cannot play a lot of games...but i cannot delete it, because it's marked as "rom"...i've tried resco explorer, but it can't delete the file also..

i dont know, what do you mean
did you mean, the file can only be deleted while the rom is created/edited
or
did you mean, i need a special software to delete the file?
