Re: deleted home icon

You can create a shortcut this way:

1. Open Notepad on your desktop computer (hit the start button, type notepad into the search bar if you are having trouble finding the program). Do not use Word - it will not work.

2. Enter the following line:

Code:
52#"\WINDOWS\manila.exe" --switchtopage Manila://homepage
There is a space between "manila..exe" and "--switchtopage" (sometimes it is hard to tell).

3. Hit "File". Hit "Save As..."

4. In the "Save As..." field type...

home.lnk

(that is .Lnk not .ink). It is important that you use the file extension .lnk and not .txt

5. Using Active Sync transfer the file from your computer to your phone.

6. Use Total Commander to move the link to your start menu. Open Total Commander. Go to wherever you placed the link during Active Sync. Single tap the link to highlight it. Click "File" (bottom left). Select "Copy/Move". Select "Tree". Expand the "Windows" directory by pressing the "+" sign. Expand the "Start Menu" directory. Single tap "Programs" to highlight it. Select "OK" (bottom left).

If you need more help just private message me.
