Hello all,
I have searched the ROM and the registry and can't seem to find the answer to this seemingly easy question...What is the start menu .exe file? I want to make a shortcut to it. I have tried "startkey.exe" without success.
Any suggestions??
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Where are u looking for?
Device\Windows\Startup (everything here starts after soft-reset).
I'm using Total Commander instead of the windows explorer.
With Total Commander, you have access to the registry (directory "\\") ; and the start menu is a directory in \Windows\ (in French Jade : `\Windows\Menu démarrer\).

Hi,
:evil:
Somehow when I uninstalled a program it deleted my inbox/messaging registry setting for the today screen?. Can someone browse to hkeylocalmachine/software/microsoft/today/items and give me all the details for "Messaging" or is it "Inbox" with all the reg keys for it.
Thanks...
I'm attaching a screen shot of the "Messaging" entry in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\ hope this helps.
Thank you so much bnycastro Now I don't have to hard reset just to get back my messasing.
glad I could help :wink:
Please help me out here!
I installed PHM reg software but can't find it on the phone at all or get access to the registry, i've been looking through the foum because i didn't want ask about something thats discussed already but can't find what i need.
Please help!!
its in the programs folder
PHM REgEdit
jfran,
PHM Reg EDIT sometimes does not gfet installed if you download the msi file and install the same using active sync. In Active Sync, it points to the file as already installed but you will not find it under programs
Instead download the CAB file and install using cabInstal. You can find the CAB file also in the same place as when you found the msi file in Phillippe's web site
Hope this helps
Cheers,
Deepak
Change directory for messages?
Is it possible to change the default directory for saved messages to a directory on an SD card instead of the default directory in windows/messaging?

I have a Sprint Touch with TouchFlo preinstalled. Instead of opening up the cube, I would like for it to open SPB Shell. I tried the FTouchFlo config tool that I found here from a search but it didn't work with my Touch. Is there an easy way to do this?
Thanks all!
Did you make sure the config program was in the same folder as TouchFlo? I know it's key with Ftouchflo.
Otherwise you may have to edit the .config file manually.
robby im in the same boat as you. what i've found is that we can't do anything to touchflo, period. we have to download Ftouchflo and THEN use touchfloconfig. our native touchflo will only work for scrolling and opening the cube.
You guys may want to check this thread.

How did you disabe biotouch.exe?
I followed the thread that netzcoyote linked to. I have a touch and it does not have either .lst file that contains the startup contents.
This shouldn't be this hard!

Well, in order to DIsABLE a process, you can kill it with a process manager. I use SK Tools for that. In order to keep it from opening, you either reomve the lnk to biotouch exe from Windows/StartUp, OR, if it doesn't show there, you remove it from LaunchStartupApp.lst. This is a HIDDEN file in Windows/, so you have to use a file explorer like GSFinder to see it.
Hope that helped.

I tried finding it with GSFinder in the .lst file (did a search for all .lst files) and in the startup folder with no luck. SKTools and Memaid couldn't find it anywhere. I can't figure out how this is starting!
Does anyone have an idea where to find this? I did a search in the registry, tried SKTools and Memaid with no luck at all!

Fist of all you don't need to look in the registry. I use Total commander as a file browser with works great! (see attachment). Look for LaunchStartupApp.lst or Startupapp in the main windows directory. Should be working, you have wm 6 I assume?
Let me know.

Even with Total Commander, I can't find either file in the Windows directory or anywhere on the device. I am running 6.1. I have DCD's latest ROM for the Touch. He cooked up two versions. One with the cube and one without. I have tried both. The one without the cube just gives me an error about trying to start biotouch. I can't disable it with either ROM because I can't figure out how this is starting. Arrrrggg!! Thanks for your help!
Hi Folks,
i want to rename and replace the right softkey (currently used for Programms)
I want to change it into a shortcut to Contacts, but i can´t find the contacts.exe or similar to write the right path into the registry
Could someone help me please?
You do it by pointing to the contact.lnk file in your start menu directory. If you wonder which program that links to , look at the property.
By using resco Explorer with enabled Data-endings i´ve found it in: \windows\Startmenü\Kontake.lnk
Thx for your help.....
Hello everyone,
I just got a new Touch HD and im full of questions and need help badly.
I've downloaded the Touch_HD_UI package and when i came to this part...
HOW TO MAKE YOUR APPS DEFAULT
- Install a registry editor (Resco Explorer and Totalcommander are included)
- Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/microsoft/Shell/Rai
- there you find lots of keys like IMG for the picture viewer, :MSFEXPLORE for your file explorer and so on...
I want to do the winterface, but I'm having a problem...
How the HELL do i find the hkey_local_machine/software/microsoft/shell/rai ??? I've looked tiredlessly and cant hind nothing.
Can someone give a run down on how to put winterface andn making my own applications default???
Thanks and God bless.

I just tried and found hkey_local_machine/software/microsoft/shell/rai first time using a registry editor
Using your file exporer (Resco Explorer or Totalcommander) go to Windows and open file called RegEdit (i.e. registry editor).
If you want a faster access to this file in future create a shortcut of it and put it into your startmenu or programs folder
There are other registry editors out there if you do a search.

Actually that's what threw me off using TotalCommander the first time as well... It has a strange way of getting into the registry: You have to go to the topmost level (just hit the backslash top right) and then go into "\\Plugins", then "registry". There, hkey_local_machine is HKLM...
Hope that helps!
I have searched but found no answer - so I would be glad if someone could tell me if the following is possible:
I would like to set windows file explorer to select the file on the first tab, and run it only if it is tapped twice.
Is there a way to do this ?
(A registry tweak ? a cab to install ? a setting somewhere ?)
Thanks
Anyone ?
Thanks
I'd like to know that too

I'd like that too.

Resco file explorer allows that be configured, as well as being superior in every way.
