DeviceLock won't go away.

So I uninstalled Device Lock because I finally found OnLock Pro, and made it work, so everything's great... right? Not so much.

Every time I suspend the 6700 (Kirvin's Sprint Clean & Simple), then turn it back on, not only does OnLock come up as it should, but now I'm getting an error saying "Notification Error: Cannot execute \Program Files\Lock\DeviceLock.exe"

I've done a search through the registry trying to find it, and even did a Dead Registry clean with MemMaid, but I can't find the trailer.. Anyone have ideas?

TIA,

Dan

I'm gonna make a guess here and I'm sure I'll be corrected by the pros if I'm off~ DeviceLock shouldn't be removed, just deactivated. Further, I believe that OnLock still needs DeviceLock to actually do it's thing. OnLock is just a more customizable GUI that uses the OEM lock to lock the phone.
Are you using the most recent version of OnLock?

Yep, that's the page I got it from, in fact.

Sorry, I wasn't clear enough. When I said "DeviceLock", I meant the .cab plugin that I downloaded from PPCG here... not the OEM function that's part of Windows M5.

Also, I finally figured it out. There's two versions of DeviceLock... one is just the executable and one has a control panel applet.. I reinstalled, soft-reset, unchecked all the options, reset, removed, reset and then, finally, it was gone.
