I have searched quite thoroughly, both on this forum and wider, for a solution to this. I may be being thick, but...
When I've installed (to either the device or the SD card ) Resco Explorer I get "this is not a valid pocket pc application" when I try to run it. I've tried running it from the start menu shortcut and from the application icon in Program Files.
Would really appreciate help with this as I am unable to do any of the nice HKLM tweaks out there without Resco Explorer.

Sounds like you may have downloaded an incorrect version. Can you give us a link to where you got it from?
Well its not exactly an official source, if you see what I mean. I dont mind paying for the application, if it proves to be useful and easy for me to use. Until then I guess Im a bit stuck then.
Ive tried .cab of the 2010 beta and the 2008 "rescoexploreren_p.exe" app, installed via the PC.
You can download a free trial of Resco, but I'd recommend Total Commander. It's not as finger friendly as Resco, but it's certainly more wallet friendly (as in, it's free )
You can Google it or find it on here.
on my leo, resco file explorer 2010 runs without a problem. so i think it's because of your 'source' why it's not running on your device.
try the official demo or search for better "source". but first be sure not having downloaded a virus (actually infecting your pc)
On my HD2 Resco Explorer 2008 running without any problem, downloaded from resco.net and installed via pc.

This is the lovely message that I get anytime i bring my 8525 back from standby. I cannot find anything remaining from MortPlayer in my registry (using resco). I think the install of MortPlayer got messed up and I deleted the .zip file that was on my storage card.
I am running SPB Mobile Shell, Pocket Plus, SPB Weather & SPB TIme.
Can anyone tell me how to get rid of this horrible message please? Thank you.

1, welcome to XDA-Dev
2, please follow my articles / tutorials. I've often tackled this problem; see for example http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=36471 (this tutorial is for pre-WM5 devices and can't be used with WM5+ any more). You'll want to get and install SKTools ( http://s-k-tools.com/index.html?sktools/m_feat.html ) to fix this problem.
Or you just have a *.lnk file (shortcut on mobile devices) pointing to Mort's app in your windows\startup or windows\programs folder on your device. You could check them easily from total commander and delete the one left behind. The file contains the path mentioned by you in the thread title.
Rain- thanks for the advice. I am unable to find any .lnk file that points to anything "mort related."
I just downloaded SKtools suggested by Menneisyys and will see if that helps me out. I'll post a follow-up too.

\Windows\Startup is ONLY executed when the device is reset, not when it's powered up (resumed). Please see my Safe Mode Bible; in there, I've also explained how the booting process and the resuming process works.
I DLed SKtools and did cleaning and optimizing. It unfortunately did not fix my problem. Reinstalling Mortplayer seems to have fixed the problem though!
My mistake read the post in a hurry. SKTools or any other software that is able to list events and notifications on the device should do the job. Or maybe there is a service that wants to run MPNotify at wake up event. You should contact Mort in this matter. He surely can make some light on it.
Bests,
Raul

Only the non-shareware version will see more than six entries in the notification list - this is why the trial version was unable to fix this issue.
I've upgraded my SMT5600 from WinMo 2003 SE to 6.1. In 2003se, there was an HTC file explorer that was good. Since upgrading, I've tried Total Commander 2.0 and SmartExplorer 1.4 as well as Resco Explorer. So far I like Resco's the most, but I'm at the end of my trial so it's time to look for something else.
What file exploring programs do the rest of ya'll prefer?
Yeah Resco is the best. Here are some others:
http://www.downloadsquad.com/2007/02/19/5-free-windows-mobile-file-explorers-mobile-minute/
just an update....
So I went ahead and bought Resco Explorer and Registry, They are good, but my complaints are that they cannot edit shortcut .lnk files like Total Commander can (something I've just learned how to do) and the Registry application does not have "favorites" like Explorer does. I've been using PHM RegEdit since it's first release for PocketPC many many years ago and never found a better device side substitute. I'd keep using it, but the SmartPhone version doesn't seem to export and it's favorites are broken. At least they have been since I've moved to WM6.
Thanks all and keep on!
Hi all,
I have a small question
I have a HTC Touch diamond and i just updated the rom to the version of 2009-01-16.
I had TomTom 7 installed on my internal storage.
After the update tomtom seems to work just fine BUT its off my programs list(seems okay because i updated the rom).
Is there any way to re-register tomtom to the programs list without completely re-installing it.
I can't seem to find any info on the xda developer forum.
Is there anyone who can help me?
Grz,
Zooibak
I don't think you can re-register the program.. But what you can do is, simply create a shortcut for your tomtom executable in the programs folder.. You can use File explorer program like Resco Explorer to achieve this..

Works like a charm.
Great. Thank you very much.
Hi to all. First of all, I've tried to search but I got to ask since I can't find this topic anywhere.
Ok. Does anybody know how I can open a file with the extension *.txt with my preferred program? When I click directly on the filename, the text is opened in Word Mobile. I would like to just click the filename and don't open my application before I can edit my file. I'm using another application that I prefer for editing my txt files. All suggestions are welcome
use total commander to associate file extensions with programs if your pref
or do it manually using a reg-editor
Thanks for the reply. But if I associate from TC, it still open with MW when I start any txt file from todayscreen, (from within PocketPlus). I suppose that using the TC only work when you open from TC? So I'll try to use a reg.edit. and see what happens. Thanks again.
you can use Schap's Advanced Configuation and change file associations..
I've tried Adv Conf 3.3, but still the Mobile Word opens my txt files
what do you use to open them? you might have specific file associations in your file browser.
what about resco explorer? it works to fix this problem in my device
I prefer the NeboPad, and the registry sais that my txt files should be opened with NeboPad. It seems that MS override this, during the copyright
this is impossible. assiciations are set via OS.. if you set a specific association in Adv Config.. it'll work for the OS unless you're using a file manager that opens using its own preferences. try another file explorer like Resco
I'm running it from Spb Pocket Plus and not from any file explorer. In the Advanced Configuration 3.3 it's stated that file with the extension of *.txt, should be opened with \Program Files\NeboPad\NeboPad.exe. But still it's opened with Mobile Word. I think I'll have to go back to Notes with the *.pwi extension. Anyway, thank's for trying.
Regards
if you use notes and it works thru Spb Pocket Plus it means that this NeboPad is the problem, not your association.

Well. I've tried a lot of editors and pad programs by this time, but every time I try to open a TXT file, it comes up in PWORD. This must be something in the OS itself I belive. Or has anyone managed it to work?
At last!
Finally I've found a program that's works. It's MobilePad (nice too).

Hi
I've just loaded the above application onto my HTC HD2. The main explorer component works as well as ever, but I can't seem to be able to utilize the Resco Today plug in and although the Resco Task Manager appears in the program menu, I can't get it to close applications down in the usual way.
Does anyone know if the above issues are a function of the HTC sence platform, or are they resolvable.
May thanks

don't install resco explorer 2010 via CAB (i have the same problem with it) but install with your phone connected to your pc with active-sync and use the *.exe file setup you can download from the resco website
p.s. excuse my english.

What did you do to install resco explorer? (Did you use a .cab? or the .exe file found at their website?)
When you're in Resco Explorer, press "Menu" > Options > Add-ins.
Don't you get a message there like "download resco today now"? (if so, you didn't install it )
Grtz,
Degake
