Think i have noticed a few minor little niggles with the OS...i guess its down to some apps not being designed for it
wallisj I think hit the nail on the head. What I have deduced about the duplicate shortcuts is that the installer for the app was attempting to create 1 shortcut in the Programs folder and a 2nd in the Start menu. For some reason, the 2nd shortcut ends up in the Programs folder with the number 2 appended after it because it is a duplicate. There must either be a bug or change in the way PocPC 2003 handles installing shortcuts to the Start menu. With new or revised installers for the older software, these problems will go away. To remove the duplicates, you have to use a file explorer and navigate to the Start Menu subfolder of the Windows folder on your PDA. Locate the duplcate icon (should be in the prorgrams subfolder) and delete it manually.
