PCTimer.exe features ?

Hello,
My 9090 has been changed, and I reinstalled everything.
I get from time to time a message "Notification error" "Impossible to execute My Documents\Data\pCTimer.exe".
Has someone got this file, in the same folder or one else ?
Where should it come from, and what's the use ?
Thanks for your help.
Jean-Jacques
I really dont know what is that.. but sure you can try to backup and delete the file from Windows\Startup
The fact is I miss this file, there is no data folder in My Documents :shock:
Anyone who has got the file PCTimer.exe, how did you ?
Feel free to send a link or any info.

Did a hardboot and reinstalled.
Data folder dtill missing, but no more warning. 8)

Some program was at some time installed into your "My Documents\Data" directory, and added itself to your notification database. You've since removed the application, but the removal didn't get rid of the database entry, which is why you were getting this error.
You could have gotten a utility like Anoton Tomov's Pocket Mechanic (Look at http://www.antontomov.com), which would allow you to look at all the entries in the Notification database and even remove the offending entry.
This would have saved you hard resetting your device.
I've had a similar problem with eWallet 4.0 installed on my SD card, where I'd get an error like that if my XDA shut off before I closed eWallet.

Need Help With Wisbar advanced desktop and settings folder

I need some help or answers rather i need to know the address that windows mobile 6 uses to go to the settings page with the tabs at the bottom, address as in \windows\settings\settings.exe
i also need to know how to get to the programs page is there not an executable for this im trying to set up a wisbar desktop so i hit startmenu i made the bam hit settings and it show up the same page that the settings are on

also found weird stuff like \windows\mycpl.cpl,#
but i tried diff numbers with no luck. Does any one know ? it has to be somewhere if we can access it in the original start menu.
You might want to try asking this here http://lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/index.php
Try creating a shortcut in your custom start menu to "\Program Files\Lakeridge\WisBar Advance\Control.exe".
This assumes that you are using WA2 and not Wisbar Lite and that you have it installed in main memory. Also, make sure that you have the latest beta version from the forums (2.8.0.3).

Default folders for Nfsfan's Rom, Can anyone help?

I deleted folders I thought were empty. The shortcuts contained inside were merely contained in ROM so I could not see them. If I can create the folders again the shortcuts will be available again.
Can anyone tell me the default folder structure for the start menu?
Also, I downloaded a manila 2d theme and activated it, but my today screen is still the standard 6.5 mobile today screen. Can anyone help me?

If you downloaded and installed a Manilla 2D theme but the screen still shows 6.5 - then you need to click on START>Settings>Today and the 2nd tab (items) uncheck the Windows Default and Enable Touchflo
As for deleting folders and the icons within - you deleted them then they are gone -recreating a folder isnt going to recreate an icon within it - best just hard reset and start over if it is important and came in the ROM

PS - Issues with a specific ROM should be asked within the thread of the person that created it, you might find your answer there already asked and answered or at least someone will be there to respond rather than out in the general threads
A hard reset will get your phone back to the original state of the latest rom you flashed. So your folders that you accidently deleted will be back. Be sure to back up your contacts, messages, etc. with PIM backup to your storage card. You will need to re-install any cabs you have installed after you do a hard reset.
nvm got it

Deleting from the Program list

I have used Settings>System>Remove Programs to remove a game but it did not totally remove everything and the program name still exists in the program list displayed in the Remove Programs app. Can I access the list and manually delete it?
Think you need to navigate to WINDOWS->START MENU->PROGRAMS there should be a bunch on .lnk files those lnk files drive the program list
nope, that doesn't do it
The .lnk files seem to be shortcuts to the main programs. The program I'm trying to delete from the Program list that appears in the Remove Programs app doesn't even have a shortcut there. Meaning that this Program list must be located somewhere else. Does anyone know where?
What happens when you try to uninstall it again?
I get a message that reads "...was not completely removed. Do you wish to remove it from the list of installed programs?" If I say "Yes", it still does not remove it.
you may want to give the program a try:
Tms Uninstaller: Will allow you to delete programs that don't show up in the normal remove programs. Direct download in link. (freeware) ~ Thanks Senax
I stumbled across that the other day while trolling for apps n tweaks...you can find the info and cab file here in the 1st post of " Software worth installing on the TP2 *Continuously Updated, links in thread* [Nov 25] " Thread:

I havent used the program...i just remembered seeing it and thought mabe it could help ya...
Peace...
Thanks
Thanks. That program did it. Nice little app for removing programs. It said it had to delete something from the Registry. Maybe the Program list is there somehow??
No. It's back!
Spoke too soon. That app seemed to remove the program from the list but it's reappeared! Can anyone help?
lmao...that sucks...attempt to reinstall it then delete it...
You've got company
I too am dealing w/this issue. I've even resorted to deleting everything related in the registry to no avail! Now I cannot find the cab for DHR CommMgrPro. I was going to try to installing & uninstalling again. POOP!!

Re-Adding Shortcuts

Hello everyone.
I recently downloaded a new rom and when I go to add a new shortcut to the home screen, under "program" none of the applications I have on my sd card show up.
Is there any way for me to add these applications without reinstalling them each time I add/update a new rom?
Thanks!!

Copy the exe of the program and paste a shortcut into the \Windows\Start Menu\Programs. You should then be see the program in the list when you go to add the shortcut on the home screen.
Depending on the program, you may need to reinstall however, as certain applications make registry changes as well and may not function without those changes. Others, such as games, sometimes store save files locally on the internal memory, so there is a chance that you may have lost those.
