Where is Solitaire ?
I guess it's left out because it can't be controlled by finger (yet)?
No users have written that there is no shortcut in Start Menu but the game is still in \Windows directory...

Using file explorer.
Make sure you are viewing internal memory, go right to the root. The windows folder is there. (slight pause as loads of files!)
Tap and hold and select copy, navigate to \windows\start menu\games tap and hold and paste shortcut. You can also tap and hold, select rename and remove the 'shortcut to' text.

Hey everyone. I've done quite a bit of searching on here but couldn't find the answer to this particular question:
My Tilt is flashed with the HTC OEM ROM. In my programs menu, Telenav was placed into the "Games & Apps" folder (which wasn't there originally and now only has Telenav in it). Is there any way to move it out of the Games & Apps folder and just place it in the standard Programs window?
Easy, just use Explorer, navigate to \windows\start menu\games (or \start menu\programs\games), press and hold - cut. Navigate to where you want it, Menu - Paste.

It is easy to make a shortcut...
1) Use File Explorer and copy the WiFi On~Off.exe file from the folder you placed it in like Storage Card/Program files/WiFi On~Off.
2) Now go to Windows>Start Menu>Programs and select menu from File Explorer. Under the menu option, you will see create or paste shortcut. Just choose that and a shortcut will be created.
thanx,,, how do i put on top bar for easy access Or remap a button to use the toggle?
if it's a shortcut/app you can go to start/settings/buttons and assign it to one of the buttons
or you could use a 3rd party app like HButton to map any app/link/toggle you like to any button...
cheers

Hello,
So I got Windows Mobile 6.5
When I go into the Start Menu, all my programs are at the bottom and I can't put them or drag them into a folder.
So my question is how can I make folders in the Start Menu and how to Put my applications into the folders.
Use file explorer or resco or total commander and go to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs
Deleting from Start Menu
Hi All,
After using File Explorer to cut and paste programs into specific folders, the programs still appear on the start menu, even when they don't appear in windows/start menu/programs anymore. How do I get rid of these icons from the start menu? Thanks!
I believe it's the same as with 6.1, ..Start -> Settings -> Menus.. then just uncheck the boxes you don't want displayed in your Start Menu

make sure you cut the files by showing hidden and system files...
hold down on the item and choose "Move Down" that will take it off the main page. I am still trying ot get use to WM6.5 menu. I am not sure I really like it yet but it is very finger friendly.
Thanks,
SoBBie
PS I also noticed that you can not order the items in a subfolder. if you are in a sub folder and hold it down... then choose move to top... it will put it on the main page in the first position.
Thanks,
SoBBie
Great advice, I'm slowly learning WM. However when I hold down my finger to bring up the cut, paste etc menu it does not list paste if the folder I'm pasting in is full. Instead it thinks I'm selecting one of the files in that folder. When there is space in an half full folder I can bring up the menu correctly because my finger is over empty space in that folder. not sure I can explain my problem too clearly but does somebody understand this problem and tell me what I'm doing wrong ?
Hi.
Does somebody know how to move games icons to Games folder? (For example "Autumn Dynasty" or "Jumba")
I do indeed
using the file explorer on the phone (these folders dont show up in windows) find the game exe in my device>program files>"folder name of program">
It will be here, probably the icon will be the games icon. Now hold your finger down on that for a few seconds until an menu pops up and select copy.
Now go to mydevice>windows>startmenu>programs>games and hold your thumb down in an empty space until the menu comes up again, and press "paste shortcut"
If you dont get something just ask again
I take it you mean just moving the shortcut icons from the start menu in to the games folder of the start menu. If the icon already exists in the start menu then its pretty much the same as above just go with the file explorer to \windows\start menu\programs "cut" the icon and "paste it in to the games folder.
BTW you can view the windows folder on your pc. You need to connect your phone through active sync then go to "control panel" on your pc, then "folder options" then go to "view" tab and deselect the "hide protected operating system files" Then using phone browser you can view the contents of the windows folder. It is however painfully slow to open and you run the risk of screwing up your device if you go round deleting things but it works none the less.

What so on the home screen, one of the 3 tabs is a like to the games folder? I found one way using resco explorer. Browse to windows/startmenu/programs and then hold your finger on the games folder till you get the menu pop up, select send to> start menu as shortcut. Then go to add a program on the home links and go to programs (instead of bookmarks or contacts) and the games folder will be there, the image will be the resco explorer image with the word games underneath it
Hope that helps, took me ages to work it out lol
Here is a link i created using THIS app. If you copy it to your start menu somewhere (\Windows\Start Menu\Programs.......) You can then assign it to the quick links. What it does is opens file explorer with arguements to take it to the games folder. Basically it opens file explorer in games folder of the start menu.
It does what resco does to create links but a bit more manual and its free.
Thanks! however the send to option is greyed out, not available.

Has someone found a solution for this? I can't believe that it is not possible to ad a quicklink to a folder as a shortcut on the home tab

You need to examine what this does...

Yes, it creates a shortcut to the games folder, but you can modify shortcuts and change the parameters. Just copy it to your PC and edit it.
Moving Icons Completely
Is it possible to move a games that I download to the game folder neat and clean (meaning without having a bunch of short cut to, short cut to, short cut to)?
hey all
pls be gentle im not very familiar with this amazing htc hd2 ..
before posting this thread i was searhing for answers in the forum but didnt find any...
i installed some games and apps , but some icons are in the start menu and i would like to move them into the games folder , and inside the games folder to create a subfolder .
how do i do these things ????
tnks !!!
The easiest way is to move them manually as they are only shortcuts (.lnk files) anyway.
I use Total Commander. Navigate to "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\", press the "ctrl" button at the bottom of the screen (allows you to select multiple files). Once you have selected them, click "File>>Copy\Move", then click "Tree", navigate to the destination folder (in your case, "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Games") click "OK" and then "Move"
Job done. You can also do the same with File Explorer using the same method in theory, although its cut and paste instead and I believe since kinetic scrolling was introduced in WM, its impossible to select multiple files. I may be wrong though...haven't used it for years!
Use resco explorer then go into windows, start menu, programs, there you will see all the app ext. then cut it and open the game folder and paste it in there. You can do one at a time or more than one at a time.
Shokouhi
thanks alot !!!
thank u guys for a qucik and helpful answer .
