I have my Dash connected to Vista and I am trying to find out how I can delete\edit\copy a file in the Windows folder on my Dash. I must tell you that I am not able to see the Windows folder on my Dash through VISTA and I even have hidden files/folders option enabled.

I can see the Windows folder through the folder explorer that came with my Dash but I can not do anything to this file...

_BackgroundImage_Land

I have 2 goals for this issue.

First goal is to change the background for my calls.
Second is to move My Documents to my SD card but there is a file in their that is called Bubble located in the Templates folder that I can not do anything with either.

Can anyone please help me with this issue?

you can IM me @ suaz4@hotmail.com

Thanks

I can't view Windows either, you solved this issue yet? you try on an XP computer?

Yes I did try it on a XP machine and I am able to see Windows but I am still not able to do anything to the files I want to modify.

Hey Guys,

I also have the same problem but have got around it using Total Commander. Its a free program that you can install on your phone. The program allows you to edit delete and move any file in the windows folder. It has got me around this annoying issue in Vista.

cheers

Ran into the same thing in Vista, but when I turned off the 'hide system & hide hidden' options for folders in Vista, everything became visible on my Dash.
