Shortcut .LNK or .EXE to Programs page

Does anyone know the .lnk or .exe for the programs folder page? I dont need the one for the folder itself but the one to the regular page showing in icons view rather than in list view. Hopefully someone out there understands what Im trying to ask for...

\windows\start menu\ programs ?

Wow that was fast! but thats the folder link that I didnt need, that link gives you a list view rather than the icons view. Hopefully this can help people understand what Im asking. Thanks

So what you want is a link that does the same thing as clicking Start>Programs?

Hi,
did you find the solution?
I am looking for exactly the same thing.

my guess is that you have the homeplug so you can use this
\Windows\folderview.exe

Here it is...

I think there are several versions of the folderview.exe, this is the one for the programs folder

Hi,
many thanks!!!
do you know if the exe file takes arguments so as to to reach sub-folders of Programs?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3445618&postcount=157
have searched around and tried to figure out what all the different things people talk bout in there ROMS are but its very difficult to understand since i'm just getting into this. just need something basic as i use it to open invoice doumenst in word and look through my inventory which is kept with pictures. any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Thats not very basic at all. Try any of the 6.1 roms, they should all do what you want.

The simplest is the stock rom. Add M2D (touch flo) and M2DC using link in my signature and then add stylez' theme and your go to go , with a basic rom and the theme that you want.

To get rid of the Message Sent notification go to Start>Settings>Sounds7 Notifications>Notifications - From the Drop down window choose Message sent and then unclick the "Display message on screen"...Hit "OK" and you are good to go.

He gotta have that as defacto on WM ROMs

To OP,
I have to add, that if you want something better without a sweat, you won't get it here. This is a DEVELOPER forum, so, expect to work at least on the reading, reading and reading front.
Check my sig and read those links, you'll get it ..

Luke!! i am your father!... now that is out of the way.... you should start by looking at the kaiser wiki. is your phone unlocked? sim unlocked? and like Denco said you should start with Stock rom (everything is at the kaiser wiki) and search around for the cabs for all the things that you listed.

quick office

ive been looking around and havent found what im looking for so i figured id post it.i noticed the desire has quickoffice installed.can we get a .apk to place on the nexus?
thanks

My nexus has quick office installed out of the box. Just click a file and quick office opens.
However if you want to edit the files then you need docs to go or similar.

would yours be att version?mine is tmo and no office thats why im asking someone for a .apk

flash cyanogen and you'll have it. or download the rom to get the apk

Aren't both versions excujw the same? Have you actually attempted to open a word file to see what happens? I guarantee you it will work.

I'm pretty sure I didn't have the quick office icon when I first got my nexus one, but at some point after trying to open an office document I now have the icon, so I don't know whether it's there, but just not completely installed until you try and open a document.

Re: I'm pretty sure I didn't have the quick office icon when I first got my nexus one
It comes preloaded as a non visible file. But as you go to open a document you will notice quick office as you viewing tool.

Yup it's there on all Nexus Ones and always has been. Bought my Nexus in early january and it was there then as well. I did buy Documents To Go though since it's quite a bit more extensive.

In case you still need it

im on cyanogen

To quote someone all you have to do is look at the persons post and at the bottom right hand side of their post click on "quote". Pretty easy if you ask me
And no problem. To install the apk just use a file manager (like Astro) from the marketplace

i was looking to see how to quote multiple posts i know how to quote a single.
thanks again

[APP][Free]Daily Tech Reader

Hello, friends!
I have a nearly useless app here. I'm trying to submit it to the marketplace and those Microsoft people don't seem to have nay problem with the uselessness! However, I had accidentally used a Windows logo in the splashscreen art of the app. Obviously, they were not comfortable with it and asked me to remove it. So, without bothering to go to source again, I simply replaced the jpeg file inside XAP keeping the name of the XAP same. But even after correcting the file, they tell me that there's still Windows logo and the application is rejected.
The XAP is here: Link has been removed
Finally, the app is here:
Is there any chance that I might have left some traces of the logo somewhere? Or is it possible that the same old XAP file was tested again due to names of the new and the old being same? Thanks to community for the support! Feel free to comment on the app and the logo thing. Suggestions are always welcome.

Nice start. I think there is a problem though. Once you click "More" to read the entire article, is there no way to go back? Maybe I am missing something.
A couple of suggestions too.
1) Dark theme for AMOLED users.
2) Options to add sites for feeds.
Thanks.

Thanks!

Thanks a lot for your suggestions. They're around on my to-do list, especially the theme one.
About navigation: I guess, the operating system makes use of the IE itself (of the engine behind IE, to be precise) to show pages even inside app. So, back button works the same way it does with IE - taking you one page back. So, the button's action depends upon the page being loaded. Simple solution to the problem you mentioned is to double press the back button - it works, I've checked. It takes back you to the list of news items. (It doesn't take you to the page where you clicked 'more', because I think its pointless to go to the short form of the article again after reading the whole article. Let me know if you think otherwise.)
Now, to address my issue, did you find any objectionable content (Windows logo or something copyrighted) which those people are complaining about?

Couldn't find anything except for the pocketnow logo on the splash screen that could have been mistaken as the Windows logo. I know it sounds silly, but who knows.

That's what I thought at first - the pocketnow logo. First thing, if pocketnow are using it, then should I. Secondly, it differs from the Windows logo significantly. Thirdly, they mentioned that the logo appears on the left cornet of the screen. And lastly, as you mentioned, pocketnow thing is stupid!
There was red Windows Mango logo used in the splash, which is now replaced with a red tile with the words 'blog windows phone'. I think that the confusion arose because I didn't change the name of XAP and the old one was tested again! Hope to get that approved. Wish me luck. I'll report the deep link here once its done.

That could be the reason. I hope it gets approved this time around. Please include the feature to add more sites, if possible.
