Hi all,

Does anyone know how I find a particular application,s .exe filename/path? I need to include this in the exception value in system registry and have searched file explorer, but cannot find the .exe filename. If it helps, I am looking for the .exe file for TomTom Navigator 6.03

Thanks

If you installed TomTom to Internal Storage (as I have done for CoPilot), the .exe file will be in a Internal Storage\Program Files\TomTom (or whatever TomTom have called their folder) - if it's installed to the device memory, the file path will be the same except for the 'Internal Storage' bit.

Of course, if TomTom is installed in ROM, the .exe will be in the \windows folder. The .exe names are usually quite self explanatory (ie. CoPilot is called copilot.exe), so they're not that difficult to find. Having said that, I'm sure some use obscure names just to try and fool us! :rolleyes:
