Uninstalling Opera 9.5 beta

How do you uninstall Opera 9.5? It doesn't appear on remove programs. Also it is now my default browser and there's no way to turn that off.

I'll see what I can find. In the meantime, should you ever want to install Opera 9.5 Beta in the future (after you flash a ROM for example), you should use Chanifire .cab here. As this allows you to uninstall it via "remove programs"

File Chanifire.cab not found, I have the same problem. There is someone that have unistall Opera Mobile 9.5 beta?

there was 2 versions
one where you cannot uninstall
one where you can
-both in the same opera 9.5 thread in develpment and hacking
but all u have to do is delete the opera files in windows folder(2) and go to appdata and delete that. There may be a few reg entries changed but nothing to worry about :]

I removed it by searching for opera after synchronization with the computer in the PDA windows - 4 files were found - these were deleted

How do you get into Setup on Opera9
Does anyone know how to get into the setup for Opera 9 - I somehow did it one time and now cannot figure out how.
I so far like this browser - way better than the mini! What is needed is for someone to tweak the chooser script and substitute mini for this one and that way we can choose between ie and O9 when a link is clicked.

There a a ton of files & registry entries you must delete manually.
I kinda like opera, (it's really 9.33 btw) but I hate how it hijacks html, htm, xml, etc...
What I did was use my latest sprite back up & did a partial restore. What you do is launch sprite, select restore, select the most recent backup file, uncheck everything *except the one check box for system settings located in the system data tab. Then restore only that infomation.
This will reset your recent registry & file association setting only. It will leave your programs & other data intact.
Then if you want to uninstall you only have to delete the 2 opera file in \Windows & the \Application Data\Opera9 files.
If you just delete these files you will have problems with file associations & that is a bit more difficult to fix unless you know the correct Executable & image files to point to.

This would only require a modification of the Mortscript file used for Opera mini.

Okay, & now go open an xml or html file

I know that the mortscript needs to be changed.
My main question is how do you get into the setup for Opera 9 - does anyone know the way?

What do you mean by "setup"???
Are you talking about the direction as to where files & registry changes are made? Then Try Below:
If you're talking about regular Settings then you touch the lower right part of the screen, Press the arrow that pops up then scroll to settings.
ALSO: you can open up any of the .ini files located in \Application Data\Opera9\xxxx (xxx= any of the folders beyond) using notepad or with Resco's internal viewer. They can also be modified using your desktop notepad.

I figured it out, thanks - the problem is that on my Tilt, in Portrait mode the icon for setup is missing due to the large size of the icons on the bottom.
I was in landscape mode when I got it to work .
For now, I am using netfront 3.5 - not as nice looking but works better overall.
I am on the waiting list to try skyfire.
I feel like I should just go on vacation for a couple months (or sleep) and when I wakeup all these problems (drivers etc, better iphone like interface) will be solved!!

It's a leaked version. They even warned you.

This is not 9.5 beta please change the title.

Has anyone figured out how to restore file associations after installing this FUC... ****?
Thanks

How can be removed this version. I manage now to use version 8.65 but how can I regain those 8mb without hardreset?

BTW, I found that not too many people know or remember this, but you can type "Opera:Config" into the address bar to get into the advanced setup features for Opera.

Hi,
Where can I find uninstallable version?

So just deleting the files will do it? If I don't fix the registry will it ruin it? Which cabs are uninstallable?

I used ssmapa to remap the browser soft button. If i choose iexplore (from windows directory) it works but if i try to remap to another browser instaled by me (Netfront or Vodafone browsers) i always got error messages
I don't find any explanation to this

is there another way to do this? SSMaPa dosnt seem to work with the new juicy rom

i have replaced the calander and audiomanager to Thumbcal and S2P, this works when you press the calander button on home or slide to the music tab. did this by by changing the .exe name nding on what you want to replace and copying the folder to windowsusing total commander. just unpack the cab files or copy from program files

Hi
Is it possible to configure the "Album" software of Touch Flow 3D to be the default application to open images, rather than the "Pictures and Videos" application of Windows mobile?

If you use 'Resco Explorer' (and possibly other 3rd party file explorers), you can tap and hold on an image file within explorer and select 'Open with'. Select HTC Album, and all files of that type with forever be opened with the selected application instead. Easier than messing about with 35 registry settings... assuming you use the afforementioned application to handle your file requirements...
Not much help really am I

Few questions about WM6.1

Hello,
I have a few questions.
I searched on the internet for this problem but can't find a bleep.
Since an unknown time i cant open .jpg files anymore by clicking them. It is possible to open them by first opening the Picture application and then open picture.
When I click on a .jpg file it says that there is no application to open the jpg files.
Second question.
Im using WM6.1 Remote Desktop and want to use it in landscape mode. Tried GSEN, this works but i dont want all applications in landscape. I just want WM6.1 RDP in landscape mode. So i tried to edit the config file and add the RDP process and app name, but this doenst work too. Anyone a solution?
Thank you in advance.
Greetings tKd

I had the same problem, but I'm not sure about the way that resolve the problem...
If you long click your picture, it gives you a window with "properties" or "assign a program with" + a check box "always use this program"

Can't open jpegs
I have the same problem on my FUZE and don't know when it happened....but neither Resco File Explorer or WM File Explorer can find an application to open jpegs....If I got to Picture Viewer or any of the Picture apps in MultiMedia...I can open all jpegs just fine...?
I did a restore from 3 weeks ago, and still have the same thing...?
When I try to associate an application from the dropdow list, there are only a few apps listed (ie Internet Explorer or Windows Media and my Third party software)
Any ideas?
Ron

Can't open jpegs
OK, answered my own problem....Went to Browse applications and selected HTC ALBUM and the file association is back on all the Jpegs

How to Change File Associations in WM 6.1

I recently upgraded my Acrobat Reader without uninstalling the former version. Everything worked fine. Then I uninstalled the old version and it seems to have taken the file association for PDFs along with it. While looking for a solution, I found a lot of complicated schemes to modify the registry (no thanks), install a tweak program and do it from there (better, but why complicate things), etc. But it was actually quite simple. So for anyone who's in a similar predicament...
Here's how to set a file association in WM 6.1:
1. Open File Explorer and find a file of the type you want to associate to an app.
2. Hold down the stylus on the file name for a couple seconds (til you get the context menu) and choose "Open with program..."
3. Choose a program from the list on the top part of the resulting window, then check the box labeled "Associate selected Program with this file type."
4. Hit Open.
5. You may get a message to overwrite current association if there was a previous app associated with the file type, chances are you'll want to go ahead and overwrite so it will remember the association you prefer.
You're done!
This works great if you want to open some multimedia files with one program and others with a different program. For instance, I couldn't get Media Player to open my .AVI files, but it was the default association, now I set .AVIs to TCPMP and all is working great! ( I know TCPMP is one of the few programs that lets you set the association, this is just an example - and it was actually easier doing it as described above!)

That menu option's not there
I've got 6.1, but "open with program" is not a choice that pops up. I looked under properties, and it's not there either. Are you using a 3rd party file explorer?

You need File Explorer Extension, here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=421723&highlight=file+explorer

Nice!
Thanks for the tip!
I have a several different media players, and this is just what I needed to choose which program opens what file type.
Thanks again!

Thanks guys, really good software that complement very well the unfinished software of Microsoft..

Great for removing the "DocsToGo" association!
I was really getting sick of being unable to open email attachments because I didn't choose to shell out for the DocsToGo bloatware on my AT&T Fuze. Great fix!
Thanks!!!!

Thanks for the software but there is a problem
The file explorer is amazing. But I am facing a problem. I have an HTC Touch 3G running windows mobile 6.1. When I use this file explorer to change the file association, it successfully changes. However, the icon of the program it is associated with doesn't appear on the left of the file name. Only the windows icon appears to the left of the file name. However whenever I click on the file, it does open with the required software/player. But because the icon of the file type it is associated with does not display, it becomes slightly confusing for me to make out with which software will it open.
Thanking you in anticipation for the help!!

thanks a lot
FExplorer ext is a gr8 tool. It solved my file association problem for .jpg files.
Thank a lot again.

I tried to install FEE on my WM6.1 smartphone (non touchscreen) but it gives an error and won't install saying it's not designed for my device.
Has anyone found a way to install it, or found a similar free product to change file extensions?

There's any way to Vito SMS chat instead default WM app for SMS managemment ?

Thank you
very very thnx to you

still not the correct icons ?
same as @sahilhshah.
Changing the file associations in either described way is working fine. But the icons are still the windows system icons.
Interestingly viewing the icons from the files which are not corrected to the specific program icon, in the taskmanager, I can see the right icons.
Any ideas?

Using Total Commander for Pocket PC u can change file association and file icon as well, it will be coresponding to specified program. Just give it a try
(That's my firsth post on this great forum )

Hi people.
Could you help me? I tried to change the file association, as explained, but my phone isn't touch screen (is a Samsung Jack) and the File Explorer Extension doesn't work.
Someone know a way for change the file association on Win 6.1?
I lost the association when try Foxit pdf reader. Now I have to open the Adobe PDF fist and open the file by the program (I already uninstall the Foxit).
Thanks in advanced.
