How to change startup application in Windows CE? - windows-ce

I have a Vipa 62g-fee0-cb touch panel which has as operating system Windows CE. Whe I open the touch panel it opens with windows. What I want, is to open an application I made (in Movicon) when the panel opens. I found a PDF where explains how to set an application as startup, I followed the steps (page 29 from the pdf), but doesn't work at all. Is there something else I should do to achieve what I want? Many thanks in advance!

Uninstall file in Start Menu applications list isn't always shown

After installing the application, the installer and uninstaller files are properly saved in the "install application folder" and in the "Start menu application folder" rispectively.
For example:
- "install application folder" = "C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\"
- "Start menu application folder" = "C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\"
Sometimes, though, the uninstaller file is not displayed into the application folder of the Start Menu Installed Applications List (list of installed Applications displayed on the left by pressing the Windows keyboard key).
Unfortunately I can't reproduce the problem. It doesn't appears each time I launch the Installer and I couldn't understand under which circumstances it appears.
Is there a possibility it can be solved by forcing a refresh of the Start Menu Installed Applications List? if this is the case, how can do it?
Thanks in advance to everyone for the possible help
EDIT: no solution but a workaround found here Inno Setup Start menu uninstall shortcut is not shown on Windows 10 2nd answer
Windows 8 and 10 hides shortcuts to uninstallers and help files on purpose, this is by design.
The Windows logo requirements says that you should only provide a single shortcut to your main application in the start menu. Only create multiple shortcuts if you have a suite of applications (like MS Office etc.). These guidelines have been in place for at least 20 years!

I'm unable to find configuration of pgAdmin4 on Windows 8.1

I'm new to PostgreSQL, just installed it along with pgAdmin4. After installation when I clicked on the pgAdmin4 it start in the browser of IE. But I want that in my chrome browser so I searched for it. Most of the people have mentioned or shared a picture of pgAdmin 4 configuration like this.
They mentioned it like right click the icon in the Windows System Tray and select Configure but the pgAdmin is not showing in the system tray of window 8.1. Or may be I'm misunderstanding about the system tray. Because in windows 8.1 pgAdmin 4 directly opens in browser.
The browser issues is fixed by change by default browser to chrome but I'm still unable to find this configuration setting. Can anyone help me to understand or get this screen?
pgAdmin 4 is a web server, so when you click pgAdmin 4 on the start menu, it starts the web server in the background, then opens a browser to connect to it.
The web server running in the background should have added a small icon to the system tray in the lower right corner.
On my Window 7 it looks like this:

Open website from within eclipse's internal browser?

Could anyone help me with opening web pages from within Eclipse's internal (embedded) browser? I'm running Linux (tiling window manager) and Eclipse-3.7.2 side-by-side with browser and it's a pain.
I want this to be able to comfortably read requirements from my code and at the same time code. This could be a question for superuser but it's Eclipse related so I guess I have better shot for an answer here.
Thanks in advance.
edit: I'm running gentoo linux and swt-3.7.1 with compiled in xulrunner support.
edit2: adding picture of gui menu in response to answer bellow.
Open Window / Customize Perspective... menu then on "Command Group Availability" tab find "Web Browser" entry and make sure it is checked. Then confirm that "Web Browser" is also checked on "Tool Bar Visibility" tab. Then you should see a web browser globe icon on toolbar that would open a web browser editor in the IDE.
Though you'll have to change settings on your picture to use "Internal Web Browser" then it will be opened as an Eclipse editor.
I know the question is old but I just had the same problem and was able to find the soloution.
The internal browser of SWT is using the webkitgtk browser engine. Because you're running gentoo I suppose you currently have net-libs/webkit-gtk:3 installed which is incompatible with SWT. But this is no problem because you can install the compatible net-libs/webkit-gtk:2 in a new slot.
Just install it like this:
emerge net-libs/webkit-gtk:2
After the package is installed the internal webbrowser is working again (for me)

On Ubuntu 13.04 using Eclipse it automagically worked, I was not sure which webkit I was missing, so I installed all that seemed relevant, if someone has pinpointed which it is, please comment,

Control a wince device from desktop

I would like to know if there is a tool simillar to mymobiler for Wince 5.0 which I can use to control the device from my desktop.
I use mymobiler (v1.25) but I believe it controls only devices running on WM5 and above.
Any help would be highly apprecited as the screen of my device has stopped working.
I use MyMobiler myself when I am coding for WinCE5.0 (not very often but I do know that it works.)
In your extracted MyMobiler zip file is three versions of remote.exe.
remote.exe
remote.exe.50
remote.exe.40
The only one I have gotten to work on wince5 is remote.exe.40
Just rename the existing remote.exe file (remote.exe.wm) [you may have to click tools, folder options, and uncheck hide extensions for known file types]
Next rename remote.exe.40 to remote.exe.
After that you are good to go. Copy remote.exe to the device through activesync (xp) or WMDC (>XP) and launch it on the device. It was a bit funny connecting for me the first time - I click connect on pc, then had to click the tray icon on the device, and click connect.
Good Luck!

This does work, the auto-install doesn't seem to work but if you copy the remote.exe over as mentioned (any location will do), then start remote.exe, click on the MYMobiler icon in the tray and select Connect, it will attach to your PC like the WinMobile version does.
Also, check the ini files in the MyMobiler directory. There's some details on the features/options.
I can confirm that Dave and Mike's solutions work on Windows CE 7 as well.
I was getting an error with the AYGSHELL.dll library when starting My Mobile after the gun was connected.
Run Mymobiler.exe before you connect the scanner to the PC and then connect to the PC using the tray icon from the gun. No error.

Close prevention of Internet Explorer in Windows CE 5.0

I have a web application which is run on Windows CE's Internet Explorer. Is it possible to run it on full screen and disable possibility to close Internet Explorer except some special key combination? I don't have standard F11 key on my device.
Thank you a lot!
The out-of-the-box Internet Explorer application ships in full source form with Platform Builder as the IESAMPLE component. Your best bet it to just clone IESAMPLE and modify the application behavior as you see fit (preventing close/removing the close button, etc).
