create it/them
e.g. in tc go to \Windows\Start Menu\ and create the new folder/folders/sub-folders as you need them, then create *.lnk files of your progs in it/them

What he means by that is that you need to create a shortcut. As simple as that.

it absolutely does
I have to translate to English, but in your Explorer it should be like:
Mobile Device - My windows mobile-based device - Windows ...
that doesnt show all the files though

sure?
can you pls add an example? after a very quick see-through I'm inclined to disagree
maybe you should check the following setting in your windows explorer:
Tools - Folder Options... - View (tab) - Files and Folders - Display xxx... option settings, maybe something required is unchecked there

I screwed up my camera.lnk file trying to change the properties so that it is not hidden. Could somebody please post it so that I do not need to do a fresh install? Thanks in advance. It is in the Windows directory.
if you copy the actual camera.exe you can paste it as a shortcut, thus creating "camera.lnk"

To create a shortcut, right click the file and choose create shortcut. the way i do it is plug the phone into the computer browse to it via the activesync window and then right click and choose create shortcut.
That was my first thought as well, but when I search for the camera ap, I can't find it (camera.exe does not exist).

oh shoot... i forgot in the orwells version that camera.exe is hidden. you would have to use total commander to view the hidden camera.exe then change the attributes and make it visible and then copy to make the shortcut file.
my mistake

Cool. Do you have a link to Faria's camera app?
I have the same problem. I have camera.lnk but no camera.exe.
Checked where the camera.lnk points. It points to pimg.exe which brings the pictures and videos screen.
Does any one have camera.exe?
Guys,
I have tried to install PHM Registry Editor, i used the desktop installer and that did not work. Can someone please point me to the correct cab file i need to use for wm6.
Thank you.
http://www.techspot.com/downloads/301-total-commander.html
registry will be in //
(last i recalled)
I use this one. Just unzip to PC desktop and run it form there (with device synced):
Thanks guys
I tried commander it did not work.Is this for PC or pocket pc. Could not find the registry editor in there lots of other crap but no registry editior. It also says I can have lan access I can not find anywhere where I can access file sittin on LAN.
Can you throw a few pointers.
Mobile registry, I have to use a pc to edit. Not very convenient as I dont have my pc with me all the time.
Is there anything else outthere.
Here ya go...
This is cooked into several of the ROMs out there but I find it very handy.
copy the TaskMgr.exe to your /Windows folder on the Tilt/Kaiser
Copy the shortcuts to /Windows/Start Menu/Programs/* (somewhere in here)
Hope this helps.

Hi, TotalCommander is PPC software. By using it you will find a folder \\ in root. There are 3 folders in \\: ftp, LAN and registry.

anyone know what command brings up the memory program in settings? meaning in windows folder java.exe brings up java, camera.exe brings up the camera, i can't find a memory.exe or storage.exe so i was hoping someone around here might know what it is and what folder it's in.
I have a "running programs.lnk" but I think this is a file that came with Slithers cube.
Having said that \windows\start menu\programs\shortcuts\task manager.lnk seems to do the job...
hmm, i don't have "shortcuts" i'm just using a stock tilt rom, so i'm not sure where it's at. i've looked everywere. it's probably called something that i don't recognize. under \windows\start menu\settings\ is empty but when i go on the device i see all the apps in settings. i'm assuming it's somewhere around there.
22#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,4,2
is the link to open up the stock task/memory manager to the running programs tab, i've attached the lnk for your use
Just unzip and drop on your device where ever you desire....

thanks, that works, i don't suppose there's a way to get it to open up to the memory instead of tasks??
were is ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,4,2 located at? is it in the windows folder? i didn't see it, i did see ctlpnl.exe or what ever it was. i tried that one, but it didn't work.
22#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,4,0
Sure just change the number 2 to 0 at the end of the link (this is the number of tab to open (zero based))
cplmain.cpl exists in the /windows directory, it will be there its part of Windows Mobile, maybe you need to unhide all file types (or system files/dlls etc) as they maybe hidden....
Hope this helps...

ok, were do i change the 2 to 0 at? on the zip file you gave me or on what the file in the widows directory? i didn't see were you can change on the zip you gave me.
The last digit of the string within the .lnk file thats in the zip file....
remebering to unzip the file and drop it onto your device (usually somewhere on the start menu/ today screen) i only zipped it up coz you cant upload .lnk files
Running Tasks
22#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,4,2
Memory
22#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,4,0
Anyhow heres the modified lnk attached to open memory for you...
Cheers,
noob question here. just flashed a new ROM & i want to re-load the original ringtones but cant find the right folder to dump it.

how to access windows folder in Vista device center 6.1
in active sync 4.5 it was easy
Open Windows Explorer. Press ALT. You'll see a menu. Press Tools -> Folder Options. Go to the View tab. Uncheck Hide protected operating system files and also chose Show hidden files and folders. Press OK.
Now you'll be able to see the Windows folder on your PDA.
I downloaded a program called Flashlight, and I wanted to know how I could get it onto my all programs list, since it came as an .exe rather than a cab. Thanks in advance!

Either move the file to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs or Create a shortcut to the exe (Copy the file in File Explorer and Choose Paste Shortcut) there.

Ah! That did the trick. Thank you very much
doesn't work with GpsCompass
I installed a program called GpaCompass that doesn't show up in my win/startmenu/programs, so I copied and pasted the .exe there, I tried to cut/paste the .exe there, still no go. it gives me an alarm about microsoft.net, but i have 3.5 installed. I've tried using 2.0 as default AND 3.5 as default. not sure what to do. I'll try to include screenshot of error msg.

Don't copy (or cut!) and paste the exe to your Startmenu/Programs folder. Instead you should copy and paste a SHORTCUT to the exe in your Starmenu/Programs folder. By pasting the exe file itself into your folder it is trying to execute from that folder when other files that it may need are in the installation directory somewhere else on your device.
So first, cut and paste the .exe back to where it was originally located. Next copy the exe and "Paste as shortcut" into your Startmenu/Programs folder
Thanks lots
@ Rumbal,
worked beautifully, thanks a lot! I apparently misunderstood other posts I had read about doing this. And , call me an idiot, but somehow completely overlooked "paste as shortcut", and only saw "paste".
Thanks
woot!
Thanks!
This is something I just learned as well. Now I'm going to go ahead and make all the shortcuts I want!
It took a while, but I didn't want to ASK and get flamed for it. Anyway, these forms are tens of thousands of posts deep....I knew the answer was here

Amazing trick...this worked without troubles, and it can be set manually mostly for portable applications which does not install in Program Files folder.
I just did a trick with portable Dreamweaver by simply copying the portable folder to the Program Files, and then copied and pasted Dreamweaver.exe shortcut in Star Menu\Programs folder....worked fine.
Thanx for ur tips...
