..use file explorer or total commander and navigate to:
Windows\Start Menu\
Now delete the shortcuts you don't need any more.
thank you. perfect

Im assuming if this is possible it would have to be done with a registry editor. My list of installed programs is piling up. Sometimes I cant stand how the program is named in the uninstall scroll box and somtimes I cant tell what program is what. I am wondering if you can rename a value in the registry to "clean up" the installed programs list.
Easy Mate... if you are not comfortable with registry editor then use SK Tools to remove the program name from uninstall list...
OR
Use some registry editor and goto
HKLM/SECURITY/APPINSTALL
and then remove or rename the specific entry....
whatever u like...

Thats all I needed! thanks. I was in HKLM/SOFTWARE/APPS which didnt change it... thanks!
I know this thread is rather old but I have a related issue.
I tried to install Dotfreds TaskManager which however does not work on the HTC S740 (Rose). It also does not uninstall from the Remove Programs list. So I removed everything manually, including the entry under HKLM/SECURITY/APPINSTALL
However, the program is still listed in the Remove Programs function. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

I am facing the same problem. Removed everything in HKLM/SECURITY/APPINSTALL but the program still remains in Remove Program list. I've removed the program manually, though. What could be wrong ?

Using WinRAR or a similar application, uncompress the cab you originally installed, look at _setup.xml or the .000 file and delete the registry keys / files specified there. Soft reset for posterity.
Hope this helps!

Hi dude
In SKTools what are your "Installed Programs" settings??
Try to set the options like this:
2) - Do not use Setup.dll -> No (default)
- Allow risky operatios -> Yes
- Forced files and folders deletion -> Yes
- Exclude strings -> windows\.... (default)
than reinstall the Cube, soft-reset, uninstall using SK, soft-reset and look for it in the SK Install app
2) if 1) still doesn't work try to set also the last option:
- Exclude strings -> (nothing, delete all)
than reinstall the Cube, soft-reset, uninstall using SK, soft-reset and look for it.
However, after the whole operation set again the SK Install options to default (or you can allow the "Forced files and folders deletion", like for my usual option), expecially the "Exclude strings" one!!
Let me know!!
Ciao

Ok,concerning SKTools (what version??), did you well follow all my steps above-mentioned??
Than, i can understand that SKTools doesn't work but "Alex" said you how to manually delete it, so what's the problem in this way??
I add that some files could be hidde/system, so you need a 3rd party explorer software, like Resco Explorer, to see and delete!!!
Hope to help you!
Hi,
I am a bit of a dumbass really.... and i need a bit of help.
I am looking for a software package to be able to remove items from the start menu and the programs list.... as i have programs i want installed but not be listed on the start menu or in the programs list.
If there isnt a software package available, then can i remove the option from within the registry?
Thanks in advance

you can edit start menu programs in settings/personal(tab)/menus
to delete shortcuts from start menu/programs folder you can delete this shortcuts in windows/start menu/programs
recent programs in start menu can't be removed. you can remove them with Advanced Config or KaiserTweak, but it requires soft reset and it removes them just for this session.
It's called File Explorer and is in programs. Somewhere..

Hi,
I just got my "new" used diamond and flashed it the way I wanted it, than copied all the stuff I had on my Prophet before.
I installed the latest ver. of Wktask, which i think is really great by the way
After doing that, I tried to get all the "old" apps which i just copied from the SD-card of the Prophet to the internal Storage of the Diamond, to appear in the launcher of WkTask.
That's where the Problem starts: I can choose to add Programs to the launcher via
Add >> Browse >> Files...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And at that stage the Software shows me a List of Applications that are on my Diamond. But there are only some Apps listed, others aren't. That's because they are in too many sub-folders (they are in
"\Program Files\app name\*.exe"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
). The ones that are in
"\Program Files\*.exe"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
are displayed correctly.
As WkTask can also work with *.lnk Files instead of *.exe files, I tried to make a Shortcut Folder and added Shortcuts via the PC (because that's some 50 Apps or so and it would take a while to to it via the Diamond) - but they did'nt work ( saying that they weren't made on a WM - Device and therfore wouldn't work)...
Now I am looking for a way to get my apps into that launcher - without having to move them into a different Folder.
Ideas, anyone?
Help would be appreciated.
I just installed the latest Cristian WM6.5 (full).
1) How can I rearrange programs on the honeycomb main app screen (not titanium or today) into different folders? Is there a windows directory I can manipulate to accomplish this?
2) How do I delete programs from memory that are not in the Remove Programs list (there was no "Clean" ROM available)? I don't want to just start removing folders then end up screwing things up.
BUMP
No one's tried this yet?

All shortcuts displayed on honeycomb are in windows\startmenu\programs.
Just go there, create your folders and put the shortcuts in it.
Do a soft reset and enjoy

Aaah, thanks Mopral. I figured it was similar to desktop windows but couldn't find it. Must've not looked hard enough
