Hi,
I know how to create a shortcut to a program by doing
99#"\windows\calc.exe".
But can someone tell me how to create a shortcut to a folder.
I tried the following but it is not working.
99#"\windows\start menu\programs\games
thanks
total commander does a good job making shortcuts

I have accidently deleted my Calculator shortcut from my XDA. How do I put it back? I can't find the Calculator program in order to create the shortcut. I have Total Commander to manage my shortcuts.
Thanks :?:

it's called \windows\calc.exe
make sure that total commander is not set to hide files in rom in the show menu
Anyone know how I can add a shortcut to the Call Log program? I have Program Launcher on the Today screen, so I need to know where the shortcut is to add it to Program Launcher.

Try VJPhoneShortcuts.

Re: VJCallHistory
Extracted VJPhoneShortcuts to my Storage card.
Copied VJCallHistory.exe to Program Files.
Executed the program and it just returnes me to the today screen.
Any thoughts?

Your question should really be in the Topaz general section. If it was you would have seen a link to this ......

Thanks for your reply, that software is very useful, but it's not exactly what I'm looking for... I need to divide shortcuts in menu you can see in screenshot...

Since this is the start menu of TouchFLO you can not devide it into folders.
You need to use the default windows mobile programs for that.
You can easily move files into folders using a file explorer:
Directory: /Windows/Startmenu
I know it is a simple registry key to disable the touchflo start menu, but I don't know which, but you should be able to find it using the search button.
One solution is to totally disable TouchFLO, but I guess you would like to keep that.

You can use utnicki.h's cab for this:

(Originally posted on Rhodium Forum but should work with most devices running Manila hence re post here).
Hi all
To help organise my applications I've always wanted to be able to shortcut to start menu folders from within the manila program launcher but standard functionality did not allow for this.
I found this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416092
and I've developed the ideas a little and come up with a cab which will allow you to link to your Connectivity, Games, Multimedia, System Tools and Utilities folders within the Start Menu from the manila program launcher.
First go to Windows/Start Menu/Programs to see if you have the above folders, if you haven't you can create them. You don't have to have them all but the shortcuts will only work to the ones you have.
Then install the attached cab. This will provide you with a set of shortcut files that can be selected from program launcher as normal. (Thanks to Andrew-in-Woking and this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?p=1782122 for the icons which I used).
I've tested on my Kaiser and Rhodium both on WM6.5 and seems to work fine. Let me know of any issues.

Ok, i reinstalled a couple of programs, then i get the shortcut in right place, but programs like tomtom i doesn´t want to reinstall i will try your way. But i don´t have resco, any regedit program will work, right ?
Here is the right way to assign a shortcut (and WM6.5 "Bronze" icon) for any program
This can be manually added to the registry or via .REG or .PROVXML
This example is for a standard REG (RGU) unicode text file, and will add a start menu ("bronze") shortcut with anasociated icon for a software called "goleada4.0", which is installed in "Program Files\Alcorcon" (just an example, not a real app, just wahtever came to my mind first )
Code:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start\Tools\Goleada4.0.lnk]
"Icon"="\\Profgram Files\\Alcorcon\\Goleada4.0.png"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher]
"\\Program Files\\Alcorcon\\Goleada4.0.exe"="\\Program Files\\Alcorcon\\whatever.qtc"
Notice the last line MUST be empty, following the standard .REG / .RGU syntax
Hope this helps
Wow! That's complicated. Why not just use the file explorer on the device, navigate to the .exe, copy and then go to Windows/Start Menu/Programs and paste a shortcut there?
Or you can use the attached programme.
