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.

just copy the exe.file and paste as shortcut into the windows/start menu/programs folder
Nothing more obvious really when you see it

Im running the Vanilla wm6 ROM still on my TyTN and its working great, im not changing to the XDA or other ROMS out. i dont like not having the Word, Excell, and Powerpoint programs in my PROGRAMS.
can someone guide me an easy way to locate them and create the shortcut for them so they are there when i go to PRoGRAMS?
thanks in advance
Go to File Explorer. It should default in your My Documents folder. Click Up once to "My Device." Click Windows. Click Start Menu.
Now you'll see the Start Menu you get when you click Start, along with the Programs and Settings Folders. Click Programs. Click Office. Click and Hold the program of your choice. Choose Copy. Click Up. Now you're back in the Programs Folder. Click Menu-> Edit-> Paste Shortcut.
Repeat this process to copy shortcuts to your Programs folder or your Start menu. (by going up one more level.)
there is no Office in Windows>Start Menu>Programs....
the office apps are located in the windows folder of the vanilla version,
to make shortcuts open file explorer and go to the windows folder, find the office apps (like pworc) copy the app, goto windows/startup/programs click paste shortcut for each one
if this does not makes sense, then read the whole vanilla thread, someone created a cab folder to install the shortcuts for you.
how is this creating shortcuts? looks like you guys are just coping exe files. i'm interesting in creating actual shortcuts. does anyone know if this is possible?

Yes ... eagle just told you how to do it, either that or use the cab file in the wm6 vanilla thread which will do this for you.
Choose "paste shortcut" instead of "paste" to get the shortcut instead of a copy of the exe file.

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

Hey Guys,
how can I use installed programs after flashing my ROM? The programs are installed on my storage card and are usable, but I'd like to list them in the WinMo surface again - how can I do that?
Regards,
Broetchen
In File Explorer, go to the app .exe on your storage card and long click on the file. In the pop up menu choose "Send Shortcut to Programs".
Hey Clyde,
don't have "Send Shortcut to Programs" in the WinMo 6.5 context menu!
you could use sashimi to recreate the shortcuts but you would need them there in the first place!
Click and hold on the executable on your storage card and choose copy. go to windows>start menu>programs then click and hold and choose paste shortcut. Your'll then need to rename them to something more sensible. You could then back them up and use sashimi to restore them after a flash.
Sent shortcut to..... is a resco explorer feature, you can copy and paste shortcut with standard explorer and then move your new shortcut to windows/start menu/programs or in a subfolder in there

If you don't have resco, just create a shortcut to app .exe on your storage card and place this shortcut in the following directory using your file explorer
/windows/start menu/programs

Use your file explorer and go to location of app.exe in your storage card. To create shortcut generally you use either your finger or stylus and press and hold it on app.exe file until menu pops up. Then depending on file explorer your using you would have either option to 'send shortcut to programs' or 'create shortcut'
Hey fallen Spartan,
there is none of these two possibilities to select with the normal WinMo 6.5 - integrated FileBrowser!
Do I need to use Resco?

Long hold what you want to create a shortcut to and select Copy.
Browse to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs and long hold anywhere in a space and select Paste Shortcut.
Hi,
I have some programs, which after the installation, didn't create a shortcut icon.
Like iGo Primo for example.
I wonder if anyone knows a program or a way to create a shortcut in order to be able to put it on the manila shortcuts?
Thanks.
With file explorer, find .exe file, tap and hold, choose "Copy", go to:
Windows\Start menu\Programs
press Menu-Editing-Paste shortcut.
i'm also interested in Primo shortcut,there is not any other way,just copting the .exe in start menu?i tried with sktools but no luck..
You must make "Copy-Paste shortcut", not "Copy-Paste".
You can use File explorer or Resco explorer.

Hi,
I have Tom Photon ROM and from some reason I cannot make quick link to the "Games" folder.
I tried to do it the same way.. Copy a shortcut to "windows/start menu/programs"
but it didn't work..
Any ideas?
thanks.
Use path:
Windows\Start menu\Games
or create a folder named "Games" in
Windows\Start menu\Programs
have this folder, but it doesn't appear on the shortcuts options on the quick link.
I get this message:
"the file 'Games' cannot be opened. Either it is not
signed with trusted certificate, or one of its components
cannot be found. if the problem persists, try to reinstalling
or restoring this file"
I can't understand if you try to make a shortcut for an app or for a folder.
The folder appeared there already.
I tried also to do a shortcut.
The message I got was for the shortcut.
I cannot link to the folder.
Try to use the shortcut of the game you want.
I already had the "Games" folder.
and I created the shorcut to the folder.
When I try to use the shortcut in the quick links, I get the message above.
Thanks.
I think that you have to use the shortcut of each game, not the folder's one.
Well..
Now that we have 16 shcts, I can afford it..
Thanks any way..
New project!
I want a wifi quick link (for the shcts).
Does anyone know a program that makes this shortcut?
Thanks.
