Anyone know how to make the Windwos folder vivible so I can easily get to the RINGS folder fron Explore in ActiveSync. It's marked as hidden and a system folder in RESCO EXPLORER. When I uncheck the boxes in Properties and go back in to look they have not changed. Does anyone know if there is another registry setting to make this viible?
Ta!

Windows folder is always visible, the last folder under My Device is Windows and it definitely is not hidden,anyway which rom are you using?
Using the standard ROM from Orange and it's definitely NOT visiable from within explorer on my PC...it is from the Trinity but its attibutes are hidden and that's why the PC cannot see it. And as I said if I change the attibs and take the HIDDEN off... it puts it back on again (or doesn't take it off)
You cannot change the attributes of the windows folder.
If you change the explorer settings on the PC so as to display hidden files and folders, then you will be able to see it.
Dohh! Stupid me of course..THANKS!!!
As you've been so helpfull....any ideal how I can get a version of Task Magaer on my Trinity. Orange doesn't supply one. Someone posted a CAB they had extracted on here for me that other day. It loaded OK but did not close down the programs only left them in the background as does the OK button???

Hi to everyone,
I just installed HTC.Kaiser.Home.Eng.0409.5Tab.schen.cab and I renamed right dll (I have an italian wm6).
All ok, home plugin appears but... I can't add items to favorite people or launcher. I tried with 3 tabs version and seems all ok: I can add shortcuts to launcher simply tapping on an empty space. With 6 version if I do the same thing, nothing happens. I can only delete items...
Anyone with same problem and hopefully with a solutino?
I had the same issue. Then I have installed the touch plugin.
However if someone has any solutions regarding this....
nobody has any solutions for this issue ?
did rename all theese?
HTCHome.dll.0409.mui -> HTCHome.dll.0414.mui
HTC HDlg.exe.0409.mui ->HTC HDlg.exe.0414.mui
HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml -> HH_0414_WeatherCities.xml
htcbtql.dll.0409.mui -> htcbtql.dll.0414.mui
(0414 is norwegian countrycode ofcourse, yours needs to be the italian....ofcourse )
If not there is a whole bunch of HTC home plugins, why not give them a try?
I use the HTC.Kaiser.Home.Eng.0409.6Tab.schen.cab without any problems after renaming the .dll, .mui and the .xml files
besides, try use total commander for editing.
Another thing worth noticing is that all files in windows folder are read-only, and you cant change or edit them...
But, if you use total commander, then go to your windows dir, select all files within the win folder, go to properties, then uncheck the read-only box.
Then you can in.ex change the windows boot screen (not the splash from HTC) you can edit the welcomehead.png and be able to replace the original with your new one
Ok for the moment I have the HTC home of the THT Touch.
I will remove it and install the kaiser plugin again
(I use Resco explorer)
Ok I have installed a new time the kaiser plugin and rename all the files.
That is working correctly now
Thanks a lot itje
no problem, glad I can help out, allthoug I did only point out what someone else has figured out
btw, I cant get the kaiser 10 button to work, I get that the file dont have the permissions to install, even though i disable com manager, but I got the 8 button touch com to work, its good enough for the time beeing
yes, there were some other files to rename. Thx
For some reason, I'm not sure why, when I open File Explorer it just hangs. It keeps loading. I have to go to Memory and end the task. File Explorer always opens up on \Windows. It's probably because the folder is so huge but I'm sure it's something else. Because it crashes I'm not able to install anything else since I can't browse folders. Can any of you guys help? At least for starters, is there a registry key I can change to not make it try reading \Windows at startup?
Okay, I found the regkey and changed start location to "\" and it works now. I still don't know I can't access the windows folder though. it'll hang my system until i can get to my PC and use the remote registry editor.
can somebody recommend a good alternative folder browser?

Total Commander will do the job nicely. BUT honestly I would do a hard reset as if you continue with that problem it will make life a misery in the future and indeed corruption on the windows directory could interfere with other things too.
It's also probable that the likes of Total Commander might also hang.
Unlike the TyTn 1 the Kaiser should open up the Windows directory failrly quickly.

Hello,
really sorry to reopen a thread which might seems outdated but I have the same problem with a WM6.1 HTC Touch Viva T2223 and I can't find the registry key which is involved...
Could someone please tell which registry key indicates windows mobile file explorer start directory ?
Many thanks

Here are two fixes:
Using a registry editor:
HKCU>software>microsoft>file explorer>Local Path (change \Windows to just \)
Last location on 0 (zero)
Reset
And if that doesn't work (this fixed my issue),
then open File Explorer
Click on Menu>Sort> change it to Name
Tryed this on my Tilt and so far it seems to run fine with no problems. It replaces/adds functionally to the start button on the main screen. Has alot of options to customize it also. Its freeware.Simply make a folder called quickmenu in your programs dir, and add the files and click to run it.
ya, been using it myself. I like it. it's a lot like Windows XPs start menu
I love how it adds a % to the topbar battery icon, no more guessing from the stupid bars anymore.
i use SPB pocket plus which adds a few pixel bar across the top. I prefer that spot that quick menus battery takes for HTC task manager. it's a preference thing though.
can you post a screen shot of what this looks like? Thanks
The author has a thread going in the hacking forum on xda:

I just noticed that.
Once you try it out you wont go back to the standard wm6 menu button. Infact you can run both at once if you want just click on "start" for the original menu, or the little windows icon next to it for this quick menu.
QuickMenu is fantastic
Long ago I used to use SmallMenu. It was too slow though, for some reason. I have been using QuickMenu for a couple of weeks and I cannot live witout it! In fact I thought Microsoft was going to build something like this into WM6, and was very surprised they didn't bother...
This is freeware from China. I have version 2.7.387.1527. The web site for this software is:
http://www.alensw.com
What version was posted here? And where can we get a version that will be upgraded in the future, and could have an english web site? I guess you could use google to translate the above web page...
i'm having trouble getting this to work on my tilt, i cant get the file to open and install, any suggestions?

Download zip from first post
unzip the 4 files in it
put the 4 files in a folder on your tilt (make a folder in "program files" called quickmenu)
browse to the exe and tap on it
should work just fine. You will not see anything setup on your ppc. After thats done just click on the windows start icon (upper left corner) and the smaller menu should appear all installed and ready to go.
It is not a pc setup program, the exe is already in ppc format and ready to run on your ppc.

got it, thx
I am somehwat new and have been reading up allot on this forum and still can't figure it out.
I have a AT&T Tilt unlocked.
I am running the Mobile Device Center on a Vista pc and also tried a XP pc.
I cannot figure out how to find the /Windows directory . I made sure that the pc shows all hidden files.
Do I have to use a different software or am I doing something wrong.
Any help would be appericated. Thanks.
Honestly i wouldn't want pc to see windows directory, it takes forever to load and takes up most of my device's processing.
But if you want the pc to see it, just download resco file explorer, or whatever file explorer you like( I think total commander can do it ), tap and hold the windows folder and go to properties. Uncheck hidden then your pretty much set.
On your Vista PC disable "Hide protected operating system files"
It is in the same place as "Show hidden files and folders"
Well, just when i think I have things figured out. If a cab is right for my phone, how do I get it onto the phone. Can I do it by the USB hooking it up to my Desktop and then copy and paste into the phone from the desktop? How do I then look at the phone and see if that cab is really there and launch it??
I have a file that tells me it's a CAB file to launch the BTAG that activates the Bluetooth settings and Voice Mail 1.6. It is from a cooked ROM and I only want this one CAB....
Thanks

Just put the .cab in intern memory or your storage card. Launch it (by clicking on it) via File Explorer.

hmm, the question is ok but not as a new thread, not in dev; how about general - newbies questions?
I really do hope that you don't make it a habit of yours starting new threads for every single question you have, urgent or not
thx for helping him
to finalize: use disk drive mode to get it to your phone via usb (activesync might lead to data conversion), you are able to select the target folder, disconnect, open a file explorer, navigate to your dir containing the cab and click/double click it for installation
depending on the cab it will either be installed (to device mem) or you will be asked where to install it (device mem or sd)
done and best
