Calculator Problem

I have a problem with my calculator on my HD. Basically, it isnt there anymore.
I installed a black skin which was OK except the % button didnt work. I uninstalled it and now the program Calc in the windows folder is gone. Its only 10 bytes.
Can someone copy the program out of the windows directory and post it please.

You have to use this program (SK Shortcut Manager) to relink your "Calculator" shortcut to : \Windows\Startmenu\Programma's\MobileCalculator.exe (in Dutch version, "MobileCalculator.exe" is the same in all versions!)
SK Shortcut Manager is verry easy to use!
I've attached Rekenmachine.lnk from my windows programs folder also. Just rename it to "Calculator" orso...
Good luck!!

Program shortcut

I have installed a program which does not appear in Installed Programs.
To run it you have to tap an .exe file which is in a directory on the storage card.
Is there a way to create a shortcut and preferably an icon that I can add to the Programs page in the Touchflow.
TIA

I had the same issue (with Tomtom). I just made a short cut to the .exe in the folder the program was in, and moved that shortcut to Windows -> Start Menu -> Programs. I did this using Active sync.

Hi Gunther
I have just tried that however when I right click the .exe in file on the phone or in Active Sync I do not get the option to create a shortcut - just the Cut, Copy, rename, Delete etc.
Did you take a copy of the .exe file or find another way to do the shortcut?
Thanks
Paul

using File Explorer in your HTC Touch HD right click on the target and chose copy option
go to the destination folder right click again and chose pase shortcut

I am not having any joy. When I right click and copy the .exe file and then go to the Windows -> Start Menu -> Programs and then right Click again the option to paste as shortcut is greyed out. If I paste the .exe file then it appears as a program in the list of programs however it does not run.
The shortcuts are .lnk files. I presume they point to the .exe/program files location however I cannot open them to see what is inside.

Thanks everyone - I did it. Just went to the Start Menu and then used Menu - Paste shortcut.

If you've already got File Explorer installed, just install the file explorer extension.

Then just click and hold on the program and choose Send shortcut to Progr ...

Easiest way is to install Total Commander (file explorer program, google it) which has a create shortcut option. Then save the shortcut under Windows/Start Menu/Programs

you can do it using the normal file explorer, just copy what u want to link to and then go to the directory mentioned and choose paste shortcut

i want tothe icon to appear in the programs when i click add to add a shortcut tab in windows so where do i need to copy the file to?

i got to the exe and copied it to to windows/ start menu and it appears there and allows me to add it as a shortcut but when i try to run it it s not enough memery on the device, yet when i run it on the device from ist normally location it runs no problem
any advice would be great
thanks

I think you need to paste a shortcut rather than the exe itself

instead of choosing paste choose the option below called paste shortcut

your right the shortcut worked a treat thanks
tom tom up and running now

Installed Att Navigator on Card...

Just wondering if I did something wrong...installed Att Navigator to card to save room on phone. If I go to file folder and find navigator it works fine, but when I try to copy the .exe file over to the phone as a shortcut so I can find it in programs, it won't load properly...where should I put the file so it will start up properly without searching it up with file folder everytime i want to use it....
Thanks

use Total Commander, its a free file explorer. Select the Att navigator .exe from storage card then under the file menu there is an option to create a shortcut then it asks you where you would like to place it. In your case under Windows\Start Menu\Programs then whichever subfolder you'd like.
OR
Connect to activesync, browse your device to where the att nav .exe is and right click it, create shortcut, then move the shortcut to where you want it.
If you need more info, just search for create shortcut there are a bunch of relative threads.

thanks for the help

[Q] Adding new programs from .cab files into Start Menu folders?

Hello, I just had a question about adding new programs on my Rhodium. Whenever I install a new program over active sync, or through a .cab file, it places the link to the program (the icon) right in my start menu (Using a Rom that has WM 6.5 with the new start page)
But, in my start page, there are folders like "Internet," "Tools," and "Multimedia" that I would like to add my new programs into. For example, I want my Slacker Radio app I just installed to show up in the Multimedia folder instead of just thrown at the end of my start menu.
I was wondering if there's any tweaks or anything to get my new programs to be installed to one of these folders instead of just the start menu.

You can use Total Commander or JSPA Program Manager to move the shortcuts to the desired folder. JSPA is the easiest to use and is free.
