I don't remember the path, but user Registry editor and search for \Windows\Favorites to find it
yes. did try tat b4 i posted this thread.
it's HKLM\System\Explorer\Shell Folders\, a string called Favorites. I changed to \Storage Card\Windows\Favorites, soft resetted but it did not work as expected.

I deleted a file from the storage card, and when I saw the first page inside storage card, there was a new folder created other than those created by me, named 'FilesToBeDeleted' which was empty.
Is this normal?
Should I delete this automatically created folder?
Thanks
This is normal. Even if you delete it with the next SoftReset it will be created again .-
you can change it's properties to be hidden..

Can you delete CAB files after you install the application?

Yes, Advanced Config has an option to delete all cab files after installation.
I always keep them on my SD card just for storage sake

Yea, they are all on my storage card anyway. Maybe I will just make a folder for all them.
Looking for an app, mod, commandline, something, that can make a folder on my SD card, not be read by the gallery.
Id like some stuff to not show up in the gallery by default. The same would be nice for music as well, something that will allow you to select a folder on the SD card to not include music files in the music app.
Anyone know of anything like this, whether it be an ADB command line, something i can do in terminal with su, an app, a mod, etc etc?
Create a file named ".nomedia" and put it in the folder you are trying to omit
Another tip to stop a folders contents showing in Gallery is to simply put a "." (a fullstop/period) infront of the folder name.
Also, to refresh the galleries once you've done the above, go into Dev Tools and run 'Media Scanner'
Thanks for the replies... seems simple enough. Thank you for all the suggestions.
Just to give you a little more breakdown, the easiest way to do this (from a Windows PC) is to create a blank text file on your PC and copy it to the folder on your SD Card, then use an explorer app like Astro File Manager to rename it to .nomedia (since Windows won't let you name a file .nomedia).

That's exactly what I did. Once on my SD card, I used astro to copy paste it to the other directories I wanted to exclude.
Again, thanks for the help.

would that be a working work-around solution for such badly written apps such as Asphalt 5 (which makes its music & sounds appear in the Music playlist)?

Hello!
When I install app's I see that a folder is created on the SD card.
Is there a way that app's will install and create folders in a specific folder?
So that my SD card won't look like a mess?
Thats impossible better way is to monitor the dates and time of install of an app then check it to your file explorer so you will know which app created a folder.

OK thanks!
Some apps allow you to choose the path for the sd folder. Check the app settings to see if this is configurable.
Does anybody know where Pure Calendar Widgets places the settings export file. I've searched the SD card and can't find it anywhere. I've got a Galaxy Nexus so maybe it has something to do with the way it handles the internal SD card?
It says that its saving the file. Just can't find it anywhere.
hi,
check here:
/sdcard/data/com.anod.calendar/backup

Thanks for that. Unfortunately my sdcard/data folder doesn't contain that folder nor is it anywhere else on the sdcard. Pure calendar Widgets sees it if I attempt an import but I certainly can't find it with a file browser like es file explorer.

The galaxy nexus doesn't have removable sd card. the file structure is still there sdcard\... but its internal. All of my other apps write to it like they did on my last phone with a removable sd card. Also pure cal widgets sees it if you attempt to import it. I just can't browse it.
Old, old bump but I found this link via google and I never found the answer until I discovered it myself. It's in a hidden file on your sdcard called .org.koxx.pure_calendar/widget_configs.
Tks
Thank you!!!!
