Cannot remove Programs

I cannot remove prgorams from the "Remove Programs" under Settings. There is nothing in the list, no number in the "...memory available:" I have restarted, soft restarted and removed the storage card. Any ideas?

Thanks!

happened to me on my 800W. Try an application such as MemMaid - betcha it will have them listed.

+1. MemMaid or SKTools will help you completely remove apps

you mean it wont let you remove them once you click on them or do you mean that it wont show all of the programs that you have on your phone? Because I had the problem were it wouldnt let me remove the programs, so I did a hard reset and it fixed the problem

There is nothing in my program list. I now can't even install programs...??? The status bar starts and then quickly says install unsuccessful.

Ok, I can't delete .cab files, error pops up saying "Access is Denied" "Be certain that the file is not write-protected and is not currently in use."

connect your phone to yuor PC over activesync and then you can go to manage programs and delete apps that way. If you installed tf3d2 it's one of the side effects of it... activesync still works

I get an error when installing over activesync also, I cannot install or delete programs. How crazy! I have not installed any TF3D. The last thing I installed was Last.FM and by the afternoon I couldn't install anything...crazy!

Ok, still no fix. So I connected my phone via USB to view some pics but Windows popped up saying it did not have privileges to show my photos. So what I am thinking is that my phone is locked or encrypted or something. This is preventing me from installing program and look at my photos. If I pull the mem card and put it directly in my computer it reads it just fine. But via USB I do not have privileges to view photos on my internal mem or mem card. Any ideas? I know there is a encryption setting on the settings but it's unchecked and looks like it's only for the mem card. ?? THANKS!

Sounds like you really need to do a hard reset and start over.
