Re: Installing in wrong location?

Hi Terry,

On hindsight - the instructions work only with some apps which use that
string variable to set the path. I have used it in the past to overcome the
issue you described.

Yes, "default location" would mean the main memory. Ideally its good to
install on your storage card since it will help keep main memory free. But
then there are a few apps which require to be installed on the main memory.
Unless you have checked it while installing on the storage card, the
"Install program in the default installation folder" should give you an
indication where the software is installed.

Sorry Raj, but you've lost me on that last point! Where exactly does
ActiveSync tell me where an existing PPC program is *currently*
installed? As I mentioned, I frequently have to go into Explorer to
find out. I've usually forgotten whether I first installed it in Main,
iPAQ File Store, or SD Card.

Maybe I'm missing something very obvious - wouldn't be the first time
