as far as I know the settings in QPST will not be cleared out by anything other then QPST itself.

the registry settings can/will be reset if u hard reset or use a backup application.

could u post a screen shot of the error you received regarding the 'phone locked by another program' ?

that is a new one to me and would like to see it.

if u followed my direction properly the 1st time then u should have a backup of the original settings from qpst. it was created when we clicked 'read from phone' then 'save to file...'

if u want u can load that file back onto ur phone using qpst. but i dont think u need to do this. nor would i recommend it. dont mess around with qpst too much. ur problem is most likely something else.
