Windows Mobile Question

I have installed some trial programs and free programs on my pocket pc. Now i want them deleted and i am having a hard time. I delete the files but the program icons are still there. I must be missing something and or I am mildly retarded. Any suggestions out there?

Donsun:

Are you using the proper Remove Programs tool in Start>Settings>System Tab? If you didn't I'd recommend installing the programs again and then using this tool to remove the programs properly.

Let me know if this helps!

Donsun!
If your answer to Tim questions is yes and you still see those program icons. You might want to use your Explorer or better yet, use Resco Explorer which is much powerfull.
Go to your Windows/Start Menu/Programs/ and delete those program icons you have un-install.
Here's another tip: Use a memory cleaner like Memaid which is great in hadling memory for your pocket pc.

Good luck... Lut us know how it goes...
