Pocket IE issue

[jy04]

After uninstalling Opera, my PIE is no longer the default browser.
Links in mail and other apps error out claiming I need to reinstall application components. Is there a PIE cab I could reinstall?
Does anyone know the changes to the registry needed to repair this?

Thanks,
Jim

OK, found this on another site. Seemed to do the trick.
Apparently most other browsers don't restore these defaults after uninstall, and PIE doesn't have a 'set as default' feature. If I get the time I'll make a cab of these settings, and post it here. BTW; These are the changes Opera makes, there may be others for different browsers.
Thanks,
Jim

Just go and get a free app called Advanced Configuration Tool and there is a tab for all extentions and you can change the default app for whatever ext you want. No need for a cab.

sweet! thanks, but is there PIE cab for a reinstall by any chance?

[weedahoe]

not that I know of because it is built into the ROM. kinda like how XP and IE are, it isnt exactly a program in Add/Remove Programs but built into the OS.

Ok This Didnt Help Me @ All!!! I Like This Program But Sitll Cant Open Link With Pie Directly From Text

So let me get this straight, in a TXT someone send you a link and it is an active link whereas you can 'click' on it and it normally would open up in IE. But now since you have installed Opera you can no longer do this as it gives you errors.

1) Did you install Opera Mobile or Mini? Version #?
2) Have you tried to uninstall Opera and see if that resolved the errors?
3) Were you able to change the default apps with the tool listed above and did the settings save?
