  1. are you using the installer from Microsoft here?

    Microsoft ActiveSync 4.1 - Worldwide English

    Activesync command line paramater error

    http://thinkabdul.com/2006/02/21/activesyn...aramater-error/

    When you launch the Activesync 4.1 setup you may get the following error:

    Command line parameters:

    /L language ID

    /S Hide initialization dialog. For silent mode use: /S/v/qn.

    /V parameters to MsiExec.exe

    /UA

    /UW

    /UM

    This happens due to missing or incorrect TEMP or TMP environment variables. When you download setup.msi from Microsoft, the setup will first extract all the files to your Windows XP Profile’s Temporary folder (%temp% , not c:\windows\temp)

    To resolve this error:

    Go to your System Properties—->Advanced—->Environment Variables

    Make sure you have the following user variables:

    1) TEMP- %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp

    2) TMP- %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp

    If you don’t, manually add these variables. After adding these variables, restart the computer and try to launch the setup and it should run normally.

    it doesn't work

  2. well for one active sync is only good for devices using windows mobile 2005, if you're using WM2003 or earlier it wont do you any good.

    does this error appear when you try to run similiar (MSI) installers?

    is this windows xp home/pro/?

    btw a silent installer for ActiveSync 4.1 was made here, it may help:

    http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=59614

    Yes I have a Windows Mobile 5 device.

    I don't think so cuz I manage to install MSN without any problems

    When I double click on the setup file, it does have an installshield installer name. I'm wondering if something could have happened to installshield related installers?

  3. Ok I've just done another reformat and the problem still appears. Files in the folder on my brother's computers are not visible on my side. Only some of the files are accessible. Furthermore, I can't install Activesync 4.1.

    I double click on the setup file and a popup appears with the following text:

    "Command line parameters:

    /L Language ID

    /S Hide initalization dialog. For silent mode use: /S/v/qn.

    /V paramters to MsiExec.exe

    /UA

    /UW

    /UM"

    I am very confused.

  4. This is the weirdest thing I've ever encountered. Basically I reformatted my computer and now I can't see some of those files from a folder I transferred from another computer. All the files in that folder is visible from another computer, but not mine. I can't figure it out. I checked the properties of the folder and nothing. Another weirder thing is that my computer isn't saving the settings that I made. I enable "quick launch" and restarted my computer and that didn't save. I had to reenable it again. Weird...

  5. This setting sets the DPI to 125% or (120 dpi). I checked it myself to make sure it worked.

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontDPI]
    "LogPixels"=dword:00000078

    It doesn't work for me. In case someone said that my registry tweak file isn't placed in the right place, all other registry tweaks work besides this one and the remove links folder tweak.

  6. You could also create a nullfile called "Links" in your Favorites-Folder. No Program should be able to create the Links-Folder.

    Some details please?

    Use this as your clean up command!
    @ECHO OFF
    FOR /F "DELIMS=" %%? IN (
      'DIR/B/S/AD "%USERPROFILE%\.." ^|FINDSTR/LIE "FAVORITES\LINKS" 2^>NUL') DO (
      IF ERRORLEVEL 0 (CALL :KILLIT "%%~dp?"))
    GOTO :EOF
    :KILLIT
    PUSHD %1
    RD/S/Q LINKS &&(>Links TYPE NUL &(ATTRIB +S +R +H LINKS))
    POPD &GOTO :EOF

    Do you mean place what you have typed into a cleanup.cmd file?

  7. I've been an office user for a while now, but I only use Outlook and Word. I've never had the need to use Excel and now I'm thinking of installing it and play around with it. The problem is though I'm not sure what to use it for. What are you guys using it for besides payroll? Thanks

  8. Just FYI, you can use the above said reg tweaks to set any DPI. For example, I prefer 125 DPI. All you have to do is change the ["LogPixels"=dword:] value to the hex number of your DPI. Ex: mine is 0000007d=125. It's just the DPI in hexadecimel. I believe that the rest of the setting changes stay the same as for above said DPI changes.

    I just put this registry tweak in and it doesn't work like you claim. I don't get 120DPI with this registry setting:

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontDPI]

    "LogPixels"=dword:00000078

    Are you sure that I don't need to use the other registry settings that the previous poster gave?
