I want to replace some of the .png files in the windows folder. I get a message that I don't have permission. I want to replace some icons.

Try to rename them and after delete. Sometimes works like this.

I don't have the option to rename. On the device (sprint touch) the delete and rename are greyed out. Using active sync, I don't have the option to rename. I want to replace the HH-FW_iconweather.png file to start with.

Thanks.

Use total commander or resco file explorer, these progs usually allow this operation

wow, total commander is a good app, I will keep it on the device. But, neither of the programs will let me delete the file. In resco, I can't see the .png files.

If it is a ROM file you can't rename or erase it while being in windows. With Total Commander or Resco File Explorer you have the option to show only files that are not stored in ROM.

I suppose the files you are talking about are ROM files from a cooked ROM.

Hello,
I have similar problem - I try to copy some 'mui' files from ROM to my SD card, but I get 'acces denied' during copying (in RescoExplorer, TotalComander too). Is there any possibility to copy files with 'ROM' files attribute set to my folder? Please help:-)

Best greetings,
