Missing "Mobile Device" link in Windows Explorer - General Topics

Hi,
i've got a big problem. since i use windows x64 i don't have the possibility to navigate directly within the filesystem of my xda iii via the windows explorer... normaly i had a "mobile device" (in german "mobiles geraet") link in my windows explorer where i could transfer files... everything works fine with active sync. but this link is missing...
it's very bad because everytime i want to transfer files i have to do it with the "file synchronisation"-feature of active-sync...
someone had/has the same problems? or read about it?
best thanks in advance

How to install CAB files

Hi!
This might seem stupid but I can't make the cab files install on my O2 XDA Exec
I know that(what I could gather from searching the forum) one has to transfer these files directly to the xda instead of using active sync , but then what after that and how?
Please need help with this. I have found so many really good and neat utilities on this forum but can't use 'em b'coz of my lack of knowledge. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanx in advance
Use "Mobile Device" in "My Computer" to access your XDA and put files in it.
Then (on XDA) launch "File Explorer", find those files and tap them to install.
If you copied just into "Mobile Device", you'll find files in "My documents" folder of your device.
Of course you can copy and run files from wherever you want.
I hope this explained your problem
Good luck
When you get more advanced you can use this:

It let's you install the application to any place you want without using ActiveSync...
Thanx mate, i'll try that tomorrow.
Still doesn't work
I transferred the extracted files to my XDA EXEC, when i click it , it gives an error ..this file/program is not associated with any application and to run the application first andthen open it from with in.
I even tried the cabinstaller but that just hangs up when I try to onstall the cab file through it.
Help please :?:
Hi,
what do you mean by "extracted files" ?
You have to put the CAB file into your Exec, and then tap it from Exec's file explorer.
Where did you get "not associated" error ? (PC or Exec ?)
If you got it in your Exec, it means that it wasn't a CAB file that you tapped.
Check again.

Help to locate a file

Hello,
I downloaded a file (extension is .exe instead of .cab) from internet, saved on my PC desktop (running vista). Since it has EXE extension, I double-clicked the file, it showed something like following:
Next time when you connect your device to PC, the software will be installed to your device.
I connected the device, then followed the instructions to install the software. Everything is OK.
Later, I uninstalled the software, and it disppeared in device>programs. I searched the device folders (including SD card), no files of that software anymore. It's OK.
However, when I go to Windows Mobile media center, under Add/Remove software, the name of the software is still there (unchecked). I even still be able to install the software to the device.
So, I guess the installation file (.exe) must reside somewhere in my PC, but I can not find it. I hope locate delete it, so that it disppear in the windows mobile device center.
Anyone can tell me how to locate that file? (I used search but no result.)
Thanks for help.

Sorry, solved by uninstall it in windows add/remove programs

Really simple question

I'm trying to create a program for windows mobile 2003/5.0/6.0 smartphone but I can't for the life of find the File Explorer. I can in 6.0 but where is it in 5.0 or 2003. Please no links to google or "jfgi" responses, I wouldn't be asking if I had yielded any success.
Thanks in advance
Have you tried looking into Total Commander. It is a 3rd party app and is a very good File Explorer for the PPC, I highly recommend it. As for the stock one, it should just be in the program folder, no?
Hope this helps.
PS If you Google Total Commander for Pocket PC, be sure to download and install the PPC version NOT the desktop version.
Nol. It isn't. I can't find the stock file explorer to save my life. Did 5.0/2003 not come with one? Am I so stupid that it's right in front of my face?
on my Jamin beofre i flashed 6.1 rom it had 5.0. I am sure the iexplore.exe was in the windows folder, 99% sure it should be there. I dont have it anymore so i can t check for you, but i have a reasonable memory
Not the internet explorer. File explorer. Or file manager. Either one. Nowhere to be found.

Lol, Ironically, he would need to search the Windows Folder from File Manager, which he doesn't have apparently
Like I suggested, download and install Total Commander. And do it with a .msi over the Activesync cable, because you won't be able to install a .cab from the storage card without a File Explorer. From there, you can then look in File Manager for its own launch program.

THANK YOU. Seriously, thank you. I wasn't sure if it didn't have a file explorer of I was just retarded. Thanks for clearing that up though.

It connect by Wi-Fi from your PC to your PHONE. I use it to copy files to the Phone, without the usb cable.
Read all carefully, and try it if you want. It's free.

[Q]WP7.5 File manager

Hello,
I've got a HTC 7 Trophy (also called Spark or T8686) with Windows Phone 7.5 (7720) and TouchXplorer doesn't work in this version.
I tried to use TouchXperience's File Manager and Windows Phone Device Manager (1.8.0.0 public beta) and it doesn't work well.
In WPDM, when I transfer a mp3 file it return me an error. With folder I can create them but can't delete them.
Anyone knows another File Manager/Explorer does work in my HTC? (I tried WP7 Root Tools but it only work with Samsungs mobiles).
Thank you
