Heaj All,
I need to change something in the registry. I always use 'total commander' for that, however; while usually it starts up at the registry folder, it no starts up at the root of the device storage and i'm unable to find the registry map. Could anyone give me the route towards it?
thanks in advance,

Nvr mind i found out: in the commandline; type two backslashes and press enter

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really sorry to reopen a thread which might seems outdated but I have the same problem with a WM6.1 HTC Touch Viva T2223 and I can't find the registry key which is involved...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
1st, how do you clear the recent programs that appear when you click the start button?
2nd. can somebody explain to me what you do to edit a registry. download the editer to my pc but then what?
Please use the forums search function. I found a few posts relating to clearing the recent used programs in the start menu. Look at this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=325396&highlight=clear+recent+programs
There are programs that run on your pocketpc to edit the registry, Resco Registry Editor, for example.
Search for "ClearTemp".
o.k., found cleartemp, works good, but anybody else for my second question?
I already answered your second question. You can get a registry editor like Resco Editor in either cab or exe form. If its a cab, copy it to your phone and install. If its an exe, activesync to your phone and then run the exe on your computer to install it.
last2kno, do i install the reg editor to the phone and use it there or leave it on the computer and edit the phone that way?
Ramsport your sig is perfect!
Edit: Here is a tip from a web surfing pro! Get Google toolbar, then whenever you see someone say something you dont know or mention a name of a program or a term. Highlight the words in question > right click > Search Google for "XXXX"
You will get answers to your questions in seconds, rather then waiting for a response, hours or days.
Hi all,
My P4350 is showing the Notification Error for every now and then. It says "Cannot execute\Application Data\Volatile\pockeplayer wakeup.exe"
The Conduit Pocket Player had no problem. Once my friend took the phone to listen to the music. After the phone came back to me this error is appearing.
I uninstalled the application. But, still the notification persists.!!!
Help me.
Hi all,
I uninstalled the application and reinstalled. But, the error still pops-up every now and then.
There is nothing in that path, which the error notification shows.
Is this a virus? Do I have to change any registry?
Please help me.
Any solution?
Hi,
I may sound that I am in hurry to get a solution ofr the problem.
In mean time, I renamed the S2U2 as pocketplayerwakeup.exe and saved that into \Application Data\Volatile\
May sound crazy!!!!!!
So that, if the phone wants to do something, let it lock the keys. So, now I am not getting the Error message.
But, still is there any solution for this?
error again
The error appeared again on today. i was surprised to see that, the duplicate copy what I created was not there. Don't know how that file was deleted. I again created the file.
Is there a solution to this? (Apart from flashing the ROM).
Whenever I connect the phone to computer, it is deleting the duplicate file what I created.
So, whenever I unplug it from computer, I again start getting the same error notification.
It looks like some background services tried to execute that path. Here is my appoarch, but be caution, if you are not familiar with the registry, please make a backup before editing anything.
First check if no "weird" stuffs is in the "\windows\startup" folder, then check if that path or file is refered to in the \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Init and \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services of the Registry and delete them. If still nothting there, make a complete search of the registry to see any reference to that file and delete it (it's ok since you already uninstall the program). Hope this help.
I am even more dumb when it comes to registry. (I can modify something if the name of the particular key is given.)
I could find the follwing thing in Windows/Startup
Capnotify.lnk
poutlook.lnk
WifInit.lnk
sddaemon.lnk
iLock2.lnk
WkTASK.lnk
GPRSNotify.LNK
Among these I don't know what does Capnotify.lnk and sddaemon.lnk do. I don't even know how to find the registry key which it referes to.

Try PHM Registry editor. Do a search with "pocketplayer" or "wakeup.exe".
No success
I finally installed PHM registry editor. But, did not find anything for wakeup.exe
What to do?
is there a simple way to change the location of ringtones such as edit the registry?? everytime i change a ringtone it need to send to the main memory..i want to make it easier.. THX
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\RingDirectory = Storage Card\music
How
I am new to this community and just got my first WM phone a couple of days a go, TOPAZ..
How do I use regedit to alternate like shown above???
You can try PHM regedit. It's same like desktop pc regedit.
you can also try the "pocket version" of TotalCommander, there a biult-in Plugin for the registry
Problemo
Hey
Couldn't get it to work, and couldn't actually find the exact HKEY either from HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\Rin gDirectory = Storage Card\music.
For me it was identical up till \SoundCategories, but no RingDirectory key. It looked something like HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\Ring\Directory
Modifying the Ring\Directory into "Storage Card\music" didn't help either, any ideas what could be the problem?
Also cannot get this to work. Have changed the setting from original \windows\ to Storage Card\music. Can anyone advise on the exact think to type in the space. Even tried adding the \ in front but same results
I tried it as well and didn't work. The strange thing is that I also used SKTools and found this as a configurable setting and it did nothing as well, seems that it was changing the same registry value.
So been playing lots with registry editor. Found how to change my default home page in IE and while there...
If you go to:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Settings.
What is in there are all options available in settings tab of the phone.
With no surprise there is more entries there then what we can see. Some are empty some are half filled in.
For example
{90A593C1-F945-4bf7-AB56-A999E425F16F} - It's title Search
In side there is Location and we get
app://{5B04B775-356B-4AA0-AAF8-6491FFEA5664/SearchSettings
and
{A7DD1D7D-C7CA-4566-A5E7-015C7940276E] - Internet Explorer
In side there is Location and we get
app://{5B04B775-356B-4AA0-AAF8-6491FFEA5663/_default
Can any help and explain what is this location:
app://{5B04B775-356B-4AA0-AAF8-6491FFEA5663/_default
Bold part is the only part that differs from each setting but from name it seems like a coded path to where some setting files are located.
Is there a way of decoding where said app is and accessing it?
Any one that knows more then me could have a look in to if it is possible to enable some other settings?
Can u advise where u got the reg efitor from?
