Hi
On my SD card I have a folder with a whole load of excel files in it. I would like to create a shortcut to this folder in my Start menu.
When I create the shortcut if I try and click on the folder shortcut I get the following message…
“The file ‘Excel’ cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persist, try reinstalling or restoring the file”
It is just a shortcut to the folder on my storage card.
Any help would be appreciated.
Answer found in an other thread
in case anyone else needs the solution.
Create a .lnk with the following in the properties.
"fexplore.exe" \Storage Card\NameOfFolder

How can I edit my cabs to change their default installation folder to SD/program files, for example, instead of their default installation folder which is usually somewhere on the device memory ?
I have got an app on my PC called WinCE Cab Manager. I used it to edit a cab file, changed the installation folder to \StorageCard\program files......but what it did was created a folder & subfolder on the device memory & named them StorageCard\program files

Should it not be "Storage Card" - with a space?
go in the CAB information properties,
edit installation directory,
add folder "Storage card" on root
add program files there or whatever.
for files then keep "install dir"
-
remember that installing on sd is not standard install.

Yes. I did that & the result was that it has created a folder on the device memory called Storage Card & installed the app in a subfolder in that folder.
It neglected the physical Storage Card completely. My objective is to change the default install dir of all my cabs so when I use XDA_UC, it automatically install them to the SD Card. What XDA_UC currently does is semi-auto install whatever I put in XDA_UC/SD, meaning that it runs the installer & asks me to select where to install the app.
oh.. And other thing is, if your card is not plugged in/initialized when UC will start, it may just create a folder Storage Card and then initialize SD as "Storage Card2" ... happened to me pretty messy.
You can make cabs which don't ask to ask:
wceload.exe "%1" /askdest
but there is no param. for default=SD
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5090353&postcount=74
I reckon you need a wceload.exe replacement, or to make a mortscript to click on SD option every time for you.
Anyway advice on that link above, that SD apps usually don't need re-installing is right too
Other option would be forgot the cab. make a zip file of all files and reg file and use mortscript to import them.

It is easy to zip all my cabs in one zip file. How do I create a reg file & how do I import them with mortscript & what do I do after importing them ?

you got it wrongly, the last option was not using CAB at all.
I don't know what you are trying to do. Hard to guess. Why would you want to install on SD on the first place?
In my case, I am placing maps and files which programs can only use from SD, I have them in zip and unzipping with 7zip which accepts plenty of arguments.
You know that CAB is something like zip. You don't need to use CAB and can have the same results. And if you creating those cab yourself, why not just create zips. And you have it compressed better too.
- what is reg? file containing registry entries. if you don't have any you don't need that.
- nothing to do after
- for files:
you place all files in folders in this zip file, starting with "Storage Card"
this will check SD card, if it's present and then unzip file "file.zip"
I have this file and 7zG.exe files in ROM-windows folder, but you can change that below.
for this script to run you need mortscript.exe and 7zip programs, they are free
==
SetMessageFont(17, "Tahoma" )
While( not DirExists("\Storage Card"))
SleepMessage( 99, "Insert SD card", "SD card missing", false, DirExists("\Storage Card"))
EndWhile
RunWait("\windows\7zG.exe"," x \windows\file.zip -y")
I am not that knowledgeable technically. I do not not create Cabs. All I am trying to do is figure out a way to have the cabs I have installed silently on the SD after I flash any new ROM. I place all my cabs on Storage Card in folder XDA_UC/SD. This is not a silent installation. It needs user intervention as on each cab installation, it prompts me to select where to install to (device or SD Card). I am very humble when it comes to reg files & stuff like that. I do not know how to write them or how to use them afterwards.
I have always wanted my settings saved aswell to be applied on the next ROM installation. Thanks to NRG, his ROMs come with Settings Export app that simplifies things but exporting all settings to Storage Card in folder XDA_UC & accordingly it is applied at new ROM installation.
why do you want to install to SD card?
What pda you have? Are you low on internal memory?
I only put an app on SD if I had less then 5MB internal free.
You should use your internal memory for programs as it's faster and better protected against lost clusters and unfinished writes.
And to use SD for personal data, as pictures, mp3 as it's easier to make backup of it and access speed doesn't matter there so much.
There is no reason keeping more then 5MB free of internal memory.
A time ago I put update of opera on SD, once when it crashed, it damaged file structures and I lost half of my data on SD.
You can have silent installs to internal memory.

Other thing is, as someone wrote before, for most of the apps you don't need to install again on SD card if they are still there. Before you reflash, backup
folder \windows\Start Menu and after reflash, copy it back.
Hello,
I renamed by error the file "LGPhone_JB.apk" with Root Explorer and now the message "Unfortunatelly, the process com.android.phone has stopped" is shown in the screen and phone has stopped.
I can access through the computer using the USB conection, but the "system/app" directory where the file is, cannot be seen, only the SD card is accesible.
My phone is an LG F100L (P895) with internal battery.
Is there any thing that can I do instead of flashing the firmware again?
Thank you!
Hey everyone,
I am trying to copy my Titanium Backup files from internal storage to my computer's hard disk. I plug my VS9854G to my USB2 port and it links up (MTP), fine. I can select the files in the TB directory but when I "paste" them in a directory on my computer I keep getting an error message "error copying files or folder" about 8 files into the copy process and displays a dialog box (error copying files or folders), and it quites.
Is this a long-file-name issue or linux-to-windows device storage, or permissions types issue? Anyone having this issue. I know it is something right in front of me I am just missing.

i had the same problem. solved it with making a zip archive on the phone from the titanium folder and transfer this to pc.
Thanks for the reply
Many thanks but to tell you the truth I was able to do to CMD/DOS and use "Xcopy"".....it's gotta be permissions?

I installed the Shelter app and created a new work profile.
Then I enabled "File shuttle", tapped "Open Document UI" and copied a few files from the main profile.
All the files got renamed to *.null ie. file.gpx.null.
The "Rename" option in the the File UI is greyed out.
How can I get files copied without auto-renaming?

Best to ask the dev of this Shelter app. Or use another sandbox app.
