Remove Icon/Icons on Settings ??? - General Topics

Does anyone know how to remove an icon on Settings???
I tried seaching for a thread, I found an unanswered question similar to this, but it was under the HERMES thread, so I think this question needs to be on the General topic to have an answer.

Yes, exactly what I want.

i can imagine, that reg removal will do the job IN THAT case, search there for clear storage:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCCPL\
and/or
HKLM\ControlPanel\Clear Storage
there are two main methods for adding "settings" applets:
-from exe
-from cpl.
reg removal is useful for exe files ONLY(usually.,,).

LOL, I just saw this a few minutes ago. I would suggest trying to add the Key "Hide" with a DWORD value of 1.

How to do the opposite way? insert icon to one of the settingstab and start exe from there?

Saving files/attachments - directory tree view

Hi,
When saving attachments from outlook you get a very annoying save as scrren which you specify where to install the files to.
Unfortunately this only allows you to choose storage card or main memory and then choose the first level folder.
What if you need to save to a lower level folder?
I did some searches on this forum but couldnt find anything but I can almost be certain this has been discussed. I remember there was a little utility that changed this save as screen to a proper tree level view save as screen....
does anyone have this?
Cheers...

Is there something to list the entire tree structure of the PPC and External Card Storage when you use the File --> Open in most programs?
For example, I store all my PDF's under \Storage Card\My Documents\E-Books\
When I use the File ---> Open Dialog in Adobe, it shows me very few directories. I'd like to be able to browse to any folder on the PPC in the Open File Dialog Box.
I hope somebody can help in this regard.

Autorun and crossbow

Faria and NTS seem to know this...
How do we get the extended rom to automatically run on Crossbow? I've searched Google and others and haven't found a thing. Is it a reg. setting or what?

Ok, you have an autorun.exe in the windows directory, and a config.txt file in the windows directory. The config.txt is the same as it was in WM5 just a location change. Have all your lines point to \extended_rom\ and youll be fine
Wrong thread I know - but I looked all over the place and can't seem to find the definitive answer ... so here goes - am I correct in assuming that it's possible to delete the contents of ext_rom once you've used them? I guess that they are only for installing into the "real" storage, and just as long as you don't need them following a hard reset, they are just taking up some space .. am I correct?
I'm working with orwell's. Those files aren't there, so what has to happen?

No. In AKU 2.x and above, the extended rom partition is locked and cannot be written to and cannot have files deleted.

If you are on orwells, you need to do it the WM5 way from what I understand.

I'm not too smart either...can you give instructions?
In the system hive, (default.hv) you should have:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm]
"TurnRadioFlag"=dword:0
"AutoRunCFG"="\\Extended_ROM\\config.txt"
"AutoRun"="\\Extended_ROM\\autorun.exe"
Most of the WM6 ROMs are missing the last two keys, thus the Autorun of the Extended_ROM is disabled by default.

in all honesty, you are wrong. Even if those lines are there, for some reason the checkautorun still looks in the windows directory for the config file and the autorun file. I have searched the whole default.hv and still cant figure out why. You figure it out and ill give you a cookie.

Delete Cab

Hi everyone,
Maybe a silly question but i'm a beginner... after installing a cab on WM6 can i remove it to gain some memory ?
Great forum, i'm learning a lot here

Hi!
I don't think the original question was how to remove the program, but rather if the cab file can be removed (if I'm wrong I apologize, but I interpreted the question different).
Anyway, yes, you can safely remove the cab file from the device after installing it. To remove the installed program use the method described by Rudegar.
It may be wise to store the cab files on the storage card, so you have them available if you have to make a hard reset.
Regards,
PK
tks for the reply paalkr and yes that was my question. So i can delete or save the cabs on the storage card and will have no problems with my device if i understood well
tks again guys

Hi!
Thats correct! Put the cabs on the storage card. You can then install them from that location also, but I guess you already know that.

advanced configuration perfomance settings

okay im using hku 070...What settings are everyone using?
theres:
Glyph cache (im using 16384)
file system cache (auto)
file system filter cache:8192
i've been playing around with a few diffrent settings...the higher up on the glyph and file stemfilter i go...the faster the device is...but it seems a lilttle unstable and slow to respond when turnign on...the settings im running now seems a bit faster than stock settings...but still reliable. thoughts?
Hi
Do you set these value by simple registry editor? or another tool?
I found GLYPHCACHE KEY in the registry, by a search but for the 2 others category what are the name of the keys to change ?
Jeffou75 said:

\HKLM\System\StorageManager\FATFS\EnableCache
\HKLM\System\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize
are the two for file system
not sure about the filter one
Ah... i found these keys
but what you try to mean is that sk tools allow you to modify directly these settings without do any search in the registry? right?
because in taht case the best i can do first is try sktool, no?

To run it well, requires net compact framework v 3.5. Make sure you have this version.

start menu executable

first- I tried searching but I am on my phone and it is a very long process.
I want to create a short cut to the start menu in windows mobile 6.5 but I cannot find the .exe for the start menu. can any one point me in the right direction?
thanks in advance.
\windows\start menu\
all shortcuts places there will show up there
misunderstood

sorry I guess I didn't word that right . I don't want to create a shortcut that goes in my start menu. I want to create a shortcut that points to my start menu. so I need the executable for the start menu button.
Unzip and copy to device.

sorry- i guess i just don't communicate good. yes the shortcut you provided me with worts great i am using it now.
do you know where the actual start button executable is located in my file directory and what the name of it is?
for instance: My Device\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Start.exe
Hope i got my meaning across more clearly.

What I gave you is not a shortcut. It is an executable that runs a command to open the start menu. There is no native startmenu.exe in WM.
