Icons removal?

Hello everyone!

Just a quick question. I just got a previously used 6325, and I am trying to get rid of some uninstalled programs icons (mainly games). The games were uninstalled, but the icons are still in the main "games" folder, and I cannot find a way to delete them !
If anyone could help, that would be great!
Thank you.:p

You'll need to go to the Games folder and delete them. The Games folder can be found under \windows\start menu\programs\games.

See this article for detailed instruction on how to do this:

From my pocket to yours....

Hi Julie,

I did that, and they were deleted in the main "games" folder, but I have a shortcut to games on the start menu, and that is were I cannot get rid of them. I even tried to remove the "games" from the start menu, and it won't let me, just a "unable to move that item"message...
I think I will try a hard reset, and then I will install everyting on my SD card. Do you think it is a good ideea?

And thank you very much for your quick reply!

Since you got the pocket pc used, performing a hard reset is a great idea. No telling what other things are on the pocket pc that could cause you some problems or could just be minor annoyances.

Installing everything to an SD card is the way to go. With windows mobile 2003 handhelds, it is best to preserve as much main memory as possible - especially for pocket pcs that are also phones - for other operations (like phone operations).
