Hi. I instaled app. but there is no shortcut at programs. How or where can i put the shortcut or the exe file?
Dear friend.
I am not a Techy person. But, I think you can do this.
Put .exe file or shortcut file in windows/startmenu/programs. Then it will be found in Startmenu / programs.
SIRESH, INDIA.
thank you.
Just find the exe file, click on Copy, then go to windows/startmenu/programs and click Paste Shortcut, after that you can rename it how you want it and it will be in programs.

Could it be that the file explorer is hiding the "real" file extension from you?
If not the file association is set incorectly for some reason. The easiest way I know to change the file association is using Resco File Explorer which provides an "open with" option. There you should select "wceload".

Thanks, I will try it, I was just wondering weather changing the extension within windows is possible?
Zah
I just did dome research in my registry and that should probably be it:
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\cabfile\Shell\Open\Command]
@="wceload.exe \"%1\" /nodelete"
I can't quarantine you though!
Hi,
I installed Resco explorer, I cannot find the open with function. I am trying to install Klaxon and the setup.xml is reflecting as a Opera extension, when i double click setup it opens in the Opera window.
Please help...
Thanks
How is the exact filename of the file you try to open? Are you trying to install a .cab or are you trying to install a .xml-file?
In Resco Explorer, when you tab and hold a file a popup dialog appears the second option is open which brings up a submenu where you can select "open with".
I have a exe file on my Touch HD which is an application. It wasn't installed on my device, it was simply copied from my computer. To access the application, I currently have to go into file explorer and select the exe file.
I would like to be able to access the application from Start/Programs. Is there any way that I can make a link to my file appear in the programs list? Perhaps a new registry entry??
Thanks

Move the exe file to your programs folder manually
Edit: Sorry I just thought actually that I don't know if this will work for your device (Touch HD with WM 6.1) but it works for me with my device and my ROM.
on my Nike with 6.0 i do it by copying the exe file and paste shortcut to Start Menu/Programs

Actually you are not making a shortcut, you are copying the whole exe to the programs folder. You should actually cut and paste that way you are not having the program exe twice on your device - Save space on your internal memory.
it's .lnk file and has less than 1 KB. But thanks in advice
Hello all,
I am trying to create a cab file for some application (exe file) that I have.
I use WinCe cab manager ... I figured out how to create the cab, which I have then been able to install.
My question is - After installation, the program shortcut does not appear in the programs menu, both in the start menu or in the list to add quick launch icons.
(i can launch the program by navigating to it ...Program Files et al)
Can someone please help me, and let me know what I need to do to list it in the programs list??
Thank you for assistance.

Did you create a shortcut in Cab Manager? It does not do it automatically.
It might be easier to help if you post the cab so others can see how it's setup.
Thank you

I already copy the solitaire shortcut there but is not present in the start menu.
Use total commander and go to properties of that shortcut and "unhide" it. These shortcuts are often set as hidden, so u cant see them in start menu.

and how to make a shortcut to exe file?
in total comander highlight the file go to menu and there is an option to create a shortcut. In file manager hold the exe, click on copy, go to where u want to put the link, press menu/edit and there is an option to paste a shortcut.
thank you 4 the answer, but i already found it total commander is really great in makin shortcuts
thx a lot for the answers, I'll try total commander.
I just install it on my HD2 ^^
Hi Guys
I've got a folder on my storage card which contains a mobile ver of online comunicator(GG) this works without instalation so could you tell me how I can add a shortcut to it to the program list (start menu) to be able to put it on the quick links? thx
You can use Resco Explorer. Just right click on the exe file and choose send to start menu as shortcut.
Other file explorers will probably have similar functions.
Or just create a shortcut for it and paste it in \windows\start menu\programs
thank you.
thanks
thanks alot.. it help.. now i can add apps to my desktop
