Adding or Removing Programs

Programs added to your Pocket PC at the factory are stored in ROM (read-only memory). You
cannot remove or modify this software, and you'll never accidentally lose ROM contents.
Programs and data files added to your Pocket PC after factory installation are stored in RAM
(random access memory). You can install any program created for your Pocket PC, as long as
your Pocket PC has enough memory. The most popular place to find software for your Pocket PC
is on the World Wide Web.
To add programs
You'll need to install the appropriate software for your Pocket PC on your desktop computer
before installing it on your Pocket PC.
1. Determine your Pocket PC and processor type so that you know which version of the software
to install. Tap
make a note of the information in Processor.
2. Download the program to your desktop computer (or insert the CD or disk that contains the
program into your desktop computer). You may see a single *.exe file, a *.zip file, a Setup.exe
file, or several versions of files for different Pocket PC types and processors. Be sure to select
the program designed for the Pocket PC and your Pocket PC processor type.
3. Read any installation instructions, Read Me files, or documentation that comes with the
program. Many programs provide special installation instructions.
4. Connect your Pocket PC and desktop computer.
5. Double-click the *.exe file.
If the file is an installer, the installation wizard will begin. Follow the directions on the screen.
Once the software has been installed on your desktop computer, the installer will automatically
transfer the software to your Pocket PC.
If the file is not an installer, you will see an error message stating that the program is valid but
it is designed for a different type of computer. You will need to move this file to your Pocket
PC. If you cannot find any installation instructions for the program in the Read Me file or
documentation, use ActiveSync Explore to copy the program file to the Program Files folder on
your Pocket PC. For more information on copying files using ActiveSync, see ActiveSync
Help.
Once installation is complete, tap
and then Settings. On the System tab, tap About. Tap the Version tab, and
, Programs, and then the program icon to switch to it.
