let me explain.

the folder 2577 can be deleted.
all it does is auto run garmin when your sd card is installed.

however, on your sd card..
under Storage Card\Garmin\Apps\WM\
is a file called QuePPC.exe

now when you run this file on a new phone or after a hard reset, it will make a Garmin folder on your Main Memory and add the program there.
and in this folder is all your settings, waypoints, map zooms etc etc....


however, if this folder already exists, it will simply run the program.

So i have my shortcuts set to run that file.

Now what my program does is backs up all your waypoints, recent places, and settings.

So that after a hard reset or flash, you can immediatly use garmin and go to your stored locations.

I did this because i was about 4 hours away from my home.
and for some reason my phone froze up.

So i had to pull to the side, do a hard reset.

then run garmin, and re set it all up.. Audio Prompts, Map zooms, voices, all the BS it asks for

but now if this happens again i could simply hard reset, and run sashimi, or if in a real hurry run SkinZone.org Backup and restore my garmin and i dont have to mess with anything.

as well, i have about 200 waypoints stored in this.

Now i do have it backed up on my PC with Map Source,
but as well its backed up on my SD card.
Thanks for the great explanation! I'll see if I can get it all set up!
