Hi,

Very new to the whole PPC thing. I downloaded a demo program and installed it onto the machine (iPAQ 2210) and for some reason it put 2 copies of the program icon in the program screen. I have removed the program but 1 still remains. Any ideas how I get rid?

Thanks

Ben

The solution is simple: start (Pocket) File Explorer, navigate to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs, and delete the appropriate .lnk file by tap-and-holding it and choosing Delete from the pop-up context menu.

You can do exactly the same with desktop-based file system browsers (Explorer or Total Commander with its WinCE FS plug-in).
