Exclamation Annoying Problem With My Calculator!

Okay, so I a while back I dl'd the Spb Silver Calc Skin. I loved it for a while, but now it doesn't really match my theme. It's not a huge deal, but I would like to be able to change it back to it's default.

Anyway, so I uninstalled the Silver Calc Skin, but instead of just taking off the skin, it uninstalls the whole calculator! Anyone have any ideas on a fix for this?!

If its anything like my problem, it just messed up the Link to the calculator located in windows\start menu\programs . the original program should still be in the windows directory. I downloaded the link and edited it and uploaded it back to my device.

This happens because the calculator file is named differently in WM6 than it was in WM5. When you uninstall the skin, it sets the registry path for the calculator to what it should be for WM5, not WM6.

If you're not afraid of using a regeditor, open up

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCALC

Open up 1, and set the String to MobileCalculator.exe. That will reset all the .lnk files to point to the right file.
