12.7 Installing and Uninstalling Programs
You can install or uninstall additional programs. Your phone does not allow you to
uninstall most of the preinstalled programs.
Note
Before you purchase additional programs, make sure that they are compatible with
your phone.
Before you launch the program installer, check first whether the installer can
directly run on Windows Mobile or needs to be run on a computer.
To install a program directly on your phone
1.
If the installer is a .cab file, directly download or copy it to your phone.
2.
On your phone, open File Explorer and navigate to the installer file.
3.
Tap the file to launch the installer.
4.
Choose whether to install the program into the main memory or your storage
card, if you have the storage card inserted on your phone.
5.
Wait for the installation to complete.
Note
You may be prompted to restart your phone after installation is completed.
To install a program from your computer

click the installer file on your computer to launch the installer.
