4.2 Adding and Removing Programs
Before you purchase additional programs for your device, you should note the name
of your device, the version of Windows Mobile software running on it, and the type of
processor. This information will help you select a program that is compatible with your
device. For more information, see “To get detailed device information” and “To find the
operating system version number” in this chapter.
Programs available for purchase usually include a Setup program (commonly named
“setup.exe”) that you must first install on your PC. You can then use ActiveSync to add
programs to your device, or add a program directly from the Internet.
To add programs
1.
Download the program to your PC (or insert the CD or disk that contains the program
into your PC). You may see a single
*.exe
fi le, a
*.zip
fi le, a
Setup.exe
fi le, or several
versions of fi les for different device types and processors. Be sure to select a program
designed for your device and processor type.
2.
Read any installation instructions or documentation that comes with the program. Many
programs provide special installation instructions.
3.
Connect your device and PC.
4.
Double-click the *.exe fi le.
•
If the executable fi le is an installation wizard, follow the instructions on the screen.
Once the program has been installed on your PC, the wizard will automatically
transfer the program to your device.
•
If an installation wizard does not start, you will see an error message stating that the
program is valid but that it is designed for a different type of computer. You will need
to copy this program to your device. If you cannot fi nd any installation instructions
for the program, use ActiveSync to copy the program fi le to the Program Files folder
on your device.
