Make sure you have folder views set to "show hidden files and folders" because \Windows is hidden from the PC.
You're right! Very stupid question!!!!
Thank You

HI everyone, I have searched and searched around on the forum to tell me how todo this but have not had any luck!!!
What I want to do is create a shortcut or move a program that did not originally have a .exe file to install itself in the correct directorys on my PDA. This means that the file was and still is just a simple PDA .exe file that you just click on through (for example) file explorer it launches.
Now is there a way of creating a shortcut to show this program in the "Program" folder so it is easier to launch and use??
I'm sure there is and I would greatly appreicate a reply
Keep up the good work people.
Soon we'll be mightier than *icrosoft !!!! :?

The way I did this (don't know if it is the best way but) was with the PPC in the cradle and Active Sync running, clicked explore on Active Sync and created a shortcut in explorer (directly on the pocket device) and then cut and pasted it into the programs folder.
DLC
just copy the exe.file and paste as shortcut into the windows/start menu/programs folder
Nothing more obvious really when you see it

I have just removed a program from my MDAiii and there is an icon left behind in my programs menu.
I want to remove this but I cant seem to locate it in explorer.
Can someone please tell me how to remove this small but nigglin pain?
explore it via the my computer screen of ur computer
explore it via the my computer screen of ur computer
then remove it... done!
I have tried exploring for it via my PC and it doesn't appear in my program files directory.
The icon is for a the game A VIKING SAGA.
I have even searched for any file with the contents "viking" in the name and it cannot find the file.
I have also searched for .exe using the search facility on XP but it replies with no files found!
Now it must exist somewhere otherwise it wouldn't appear in my program files list.
BUT WHERE?
suggestion
in ppc file explorer press a little longer and enable "view all files" and then see if u can find it!
or enable vie all files on PC and try!
I have view all files enabled on my PC and still no luck!
Where is the option to view all files on my MDA file explorer?
I apologise for my stupidity but I have only had it for two days!
Are you looking in the right directory?
Should be:
My Device/Windows/Start Menu/Programs
Cheers Neil!
Sorry everyone - I was looking in the wrong place but now I know!
DOH :wink:
Hey guys.
I would like to go into my Windows directory on my Blackstone from my computer. Is that even possible?
Yes it is.
I assume you are connected via ActiveSync between the PC and Blackstone?
You should be able to access the entire directory structure.
I'm using WM Device center to connect my HD via ActiveSync. I'm also not able to see my windows map on my Blackstone. I've set the settings to also show hidden folders, but Windows still not visble. How is that with ActiveSync on Windows XP?
Not the windows directory..

Make sure you are displaying hidden files and you have the option to show protected os files.
My settings (on my PC) are to show hidden files and folders. Where do I find the option to show also hidden OS files? Thanks in advance
In the same window. Scroll settings and uncheck "hide SYSTEM file" in windows XP...

look at the post of BillGates! On your PC make sure you check the setting to show hidden files and folders and then look for the setting BillGates gave. Good luck
lol, i bet it's the first time that bill gates provides a working fix for a negative windows feature

If you can't see your TP2 Windows folder from your PC it may be because on your PC you have checked "Hide protected operating system files", under Folder and search options>View (on the PC). BTW: This is a different setting from "Show/Don't hidden files, folders and drives".

Hi everyone,
sorry to bother you with such a beginner question but I'm trying to access /windows directory from my computer when my device is connected to it but I can't find it.
First, I thought we can't get to it and looked for an app to get the access but I don't find anything...
So, do you know a way to access /windows directory from your computer?
Thank you a lot!
A Windows setting on your PC is hiding certain folders/files, and that extends to your phone when viewing the phone from the PC.
On your PC, in Windows Explorer or similar screen where you can see files and folders, click on Organize>Folder Options>View. Exactly where this is and what it's called depends on which version of Windows you have. Then select "Show hidden files, folders, and drives" and unselect "Hide protected operating system folders".
